Operating under the ideal that all children should have access to sports equipment and be able to play, this charitable organization is finding a way to ship such pieces to needy kids, especially those in refugee camps. PlayPallets believes "that access to sports equipment is a fundamental right that every kid in the world deserves, no matter the situation."
They create kits out of shipping pallets that can be built into basketball hoops, soccer goal posts, skateboarding ramps and cricket stumps without any additional parts. Described as the first totally contained play equipment shipping pallet in the world, the PlayPallets are designed to easily break down into sturdy equipment you can play with. The pallets can still be used to ship supplies to other places as well.
