Our Story

Why Sunnyside Playrooms

We provide family-friendly playrooms in adult cancer hospitals within the United States

Watch the video below to see what life is like, as a parent, fighting cancer in the hospital.

This is Our Family's Story.

What We Do

Reunite families fighting cancer. Create a space for meaningful moments while in the hospital. 

We provide family-friendly playrooms in adult cancer hospitals within the United States. These playrooms provide a sanctuary where families come together to play with toys, games, create memorable pieces of art together, read books, relax in an environment with murals that bring the outside IN, and watch child-friendly movies in comfortable furniture. To this date, there are no family playrooms in adult cancer hospitals in the U.S. Our first family playroom had a ribbon cutting that happened on May 18, 2021. This was the FIRST FAMILY PLAYROOM AT AN ADULT CANCER HOSPITAL IN THE US, thanks to YOU!! OhioHealth Proud to Welcome Families to Alex’s Sunnyside Playroom on the Riverside Methodist Hospital Campus.

Second Family Playroom

Our second family playroom opened at OSUCC-The James at the end of 2023.
