The childhood cancer and blood disorders ward is where young patients with some of the most challenging and complex illnesses spend weeks or months receiving care. Together we can reimagine these hospital rooms with a family-friendly feel, and improved technology and research for the care of childhood cancer.

When a child is getting treatment here, the space becomes a second home for them and their family. You can help fill the rooms with colour, comfort and care – that reflects the excellence and compassion of the health care teams who support them. Your support will help kids like Ella, who was diagnosed with Leukemia at 3 years old.

Your gift will help:

• Revitalize 15 patient rooms, a treatment room, family lounge, nursing station, and shared spaces that hundreds of children and families rely on each year
• Improve infection prevention and airflow for vulnerable patients
• Upgrade technology for education, entertainment, and connection
• Introduce brighter colours and natural light to comfort and calm kids and families
• Enhance family areas and furniture for rest and comfort
• Support ongoing research into childhood cancer and blood disorders

You can give a comforting environment to kids when they need it most.

For patients facing cancer treatment, organ transplants and other complex disorders, these updates mean more than modern amenities – they directly support healing and recovery.

These children often spend weeks to months in hospital while undergoing treatment in a dull institutional environment. But you can turn the rooms into family-focused and child-friendly spaces that will bring brightness and comfort to support their emotional and physical well-being. A healing environment that will help kids stay resilient and hopeful through some of the hardest moments of their lives.

Experience what a patient room could be. Our ‘pop up’ Children’s Hospital patient room will soon be installed in a number of public spaces, beginning with Outlet Collection Winnipeg.

With construction already underway and patients displaced, community support to help complete the transformation is urgently needed.
