It may not be magic when Delta Air Lines volunteers join with KaBoom to build an urban playground, but the results smack of abracadabra.

Earlier this month, the companies joined forces to build a new playground at Atlanta Mission-My Sister’s House, a shelter for homeless women and children in midtown Atlanta — in one day.

The build kicked off the 25th anniversary of Hands On Atlanta, a civic organization that encourages volunteers to pitch in to help meet the pressing needs of the Atlanta community.

“Delta is Atlanta’s hometown airline, and Delta people are proud to come out on Hands On Atlanta Day to work alongside organizations that give back so much to the community like KaBOOM! and the Atlanta Mission,” said Tad Hutcheson, vice president community affairs, Delta Air Lines. “This playground will bring more than 740 children who live at My Sister’s House each year one step closer to having the childhood they deserve by providing a safe place to play and stay physically active.”

During a ribbon-cutting ceremony at the close of the project, Hutcheson presented a check for $10,000 from Delta to the Atlanta Mission to help the organization with long-term maintenance of the playground and to support other services it provides.
