The Temple University chapter of the Public Relations Student Society of America (PRSSA) in partnership with childhood cancer advocacy non-profit With Purpose, will host the Play With Purpose day on Monday, Feb. 19 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Smith Memorial Playground in Fairmount Park.

Families and children ten years-old and younger are invited to participate in an engaging and interactive day of open play including activity stations throughout the playhouse, music, food and more.

Play With Purpose is a completely free day dedicated to educating parents and children about the therapeutic value of play. It is With Purpose’s mission to advocate for kids with cancer to receive safe and effective treatments. By activating the voices of young leaders, youth-led advocates inspire communities to act and give hope to families managing childhood cancer.

Activity stations will feature coloring, games, dancing, reading and more. The outside playground features play equipment, acres of open space and the famous giant wooden slide. The three-level indoor playhouse has a train, a play kitchen station, a book room, a block room, tricycles, toys and much more.
