On August 21, 2008 The Legendary Reverend Run and wife Justine Simmons partnered with Kool-Aid and Kaboom in a joint effort to give back to the community. Their mission is to complete twenty-four playgrounds across the country by 2008.

One of their many stops took place in Atlanta, GA at the Edgewood Court apartments. The power couple was greeted with enthusiastic volunteers, young children, seniors of the community and representatives from Kool-Aid & Kaboom.

The playground’s construction began from the morning hours until mid afternoon. The playground was filled with brightly colored sliding boards, color coordinated work- benches, murals of the United States and freshly laid mulch for “safe landings”. The children of Design Day Events created the playground’s layout and design.

When asked in an interview with Aquarius Williams of Q-Talks TV “What inspired the desire to partner with Kool-Aid and Kaboom in their initiative to supply the youth with playgrounds” The Simmons responded with “ They saw Run’s House with all the kids and said, they’ll be perfect to build parks; so they called us and they were right. We signed up and got to see the community building parks.”

Reverend Run and Justine Simmons have reminded America the core values of a healthy and strong family. They are teaching and leading by example. One can view the Simmons household on their hit reality show “Run’s House” airing on MTV at various times or read their book “Take Back Your Family”… A Challenge to America’s Parents!
