Enhancing Elementary Playgrounds!

Each year, as part of the Zephyr Gala the MAEF Board partners with Mahtomedi Public Schools to support an innovative district initiative with the potential to Empower Student Experiences.

Creating Fun, Safe, and Inclusive Play Spaces for Wildwood and O.H. Anderson Elementary Schools!

Playgrounds are more than just play areas—they are spaces for adventure, social growth, and physical activity. The 2025 MAEF Fund-a-Need campaign is dedicated to enhancing the playgrounds at Wildwood and O.H. Anderson Elementary Schools, ensuring that all students have access to safe, age-appropriate, and inclusive outdoor play experiences.
