Inaugural Playroom
Alex’s Sunnyside Playroom provides a family-friendly room in adult cancer hospitals. This service and space includes art supplies, toys, books, play structures, child-sized furniture, games, murals from commissioned artists, and family movies. We finished construction in the inaugural playroom in June 2021 at Riverside Methodist Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. The room is open for end-of-life situations during the pandemic. Our second family playroom is committed to OSUCC-The James for construction in 2022.
