Geoff and Kikanza Ramsey-Ray transformed a neglected property into the Village Playgarden, creating a diverse community-focused preschool that promotes nature-based learning and a sense of belonging.
'We always ended up with a long wait list. No wonder. With enormous TLC, hard work and plenty of volunteers, Village Playgarden morphed into not only a kid's paradise but a reprieve for parents.'
The Ramsey-Rays’ vision fostered a community that prioritized not just education, but also inclusivity and collaboration among families, making it a cherished cornerstone for local children.
Kikanza aimed to unite families in Altadena, particularly in a historically Black community, through innovative educational practices that borrowed from versatile learning philosophies.
