A Friday of Firsts to celebrate our FIRST EMMY® 🩷💫
For 15 years, A Rosie Place for Children has helped children with medical complexities experience moments many families once thought impossible: first sleepovers, first bike rides, first best friends!
This week, we're honored to celebrate a first of our own. She's All Set, the documentary featuring A Rosie Place for Children and produced by The Grotto Network at the University of Notre Dame, received an Emmy Award for Outstanding Achievement in Diversity/Equity/Inclusion – Short Form Content at the 66th Annual Chicago/Midwest Emmy® Awards.
As we look back on this exciting milestone, we're reflecting on the firsts that matter most: the unforgettable moments our children and families experience every day.
Take a look back at 15 years of incredible firsts. Visit arosieplace.org/15years/ today 🔗 ...

🩷✨ Gratitude goes a long way, and today we're celebrating an incredible community partner, Dec-O-Art, Inc.!
For Donation Day, volunteers from Dec-O-Art, Inc. rolled up their sleeves to help us prepare for one of our most joyful traditions: It's A Wonderful Life.
But the love didn't stop there; their team surprised us with a generous donation that will help bring even more love, care, and fun to medically fragile children and their families!
Their team's reaction says everything:
"Our team is still raving about how uplifting and meaningful it was to volunteer with your organization!"
At A Rosie Place, we see it time and again: when people connect with the mission firsthand, they don't just support the work, they become part of it.
Thank you, Dec-O-Art, Inc., for helping us build hope for medically fragile children and their families. ...
💛✨ Remembering our Rosies: Reflecting on our Rosie Remembrance Ceremony.
Through stories and reflection this week, we paid tribute to lives that touched us so deeply. Though their time here was too short, their legacy of love, hope, and joy will live on.
We are profoundly grateful to the families who allowed us to walk alongside them in remembrance. Their children’s love and light will always be embraced here.

We were honored to officially open HeARTworks Studio, a transformative space that empowers medically fragile children through creativity, connection, and possibility!

Seeing so many supporters gathered for the ribbon-cutting was a powerful reminder that HeARTworks Studio was built through countless acts of love.
