About This Project
The community field in San Mateo is the primary gathering space for 80 children and youth, but it is not safe or usable after dark.
There is:
-
No lighting
-
No covered space
-
Limited infrastructure
Because of this:
-
The field is not usable in the evenings
-
The area becomes unsafe at night
-
Families avoid the space after dark
-
Youth lose consistent access to structured activity
