Welcome to Once Upon a Room
Once Upon a Room is a national 501 (c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides an invaluable service to children in the hospital while fighting serious, life threatening illnesses or acute trauma often resulting in permanent disabilities, months of medical treatment and extended inpatient and outpatient care. Through personalized hospital room decorating and different events and programs, we are able to bring joy to their hospital stay and beyond.
