🎅✨ 15 Years of Firsts: First It's A Wonderful Life
For many children, holiday traditions become treasured memories. At A Rosie Place for Children, we're grateful to create opportunities for medically fragile children to experience the magic, joy, and wonder of the season in a way that's made just for them.
This year, children will once again share special moments with Santa Claus & Mrs. Claus during It's A Wonderful Life, creating memories they'll cherish for years to come. ❤️

We're so grateful to the South Bend Roller Derby for their generous donation and for taking the time to tour A Rosie Place this week. 💜
Their support helps create more love, care, and fun for the children and families who call A Rosie Place home!
The generosity didn't stop there. The team also invited us to their opening night, where fans and teammates donated items from our Amazon Wishlist to support our children and families. What an incredible way to rally a community around local children in need!
The team was so supportive and asked that we share our Amazon wishlist for anyone wishing to continue their support! 🔗 arosieplace.org/wish-list/
Thank you, South Bend Roller Derby, and everyone who contributed to helping bring comfort, joy, and meaningful support to our Rosie families. 🩷💫 ...
When these two girls shared their first stay together at A Rosie Place for Children, they connected right away.
They came back for another sleepover, and their friendship only grew stronger. The weekend was filled with art projects, music, laughter, and time spent together. They were inseparable.
For many families of children with medical complexities, seeing their child find a true friend is something they never imagined possible. Finding someone who understands their experiences, shares their interests, and simply enjoys being a kid alongside them can mean the world.
For 15 years, A Rosie Place has created opportunities for firsts that many families once thought were out of reach, including first best friends.
Together, we're building a world of YES and a world of FIRSTS, where more children can experience friendship, belonging, and the moments that make childhood magical.

Play-Doh + A Rosie Place for Children = Love, Care, and Fun 🩷💫
We're so thankful for Hands of Hope, a nonprofit that sends Play-Doh to hospitals in all 50 states. This thoughtful gift brought smiles to everyone at A Rosie Place 🤩
For our children, Play-Doh means colorful creations, imaginative play, and opportunities to strengthen fine motor skills.
For our nurses, it means something else entirely: the irresistible joy of popping open a fresh container and being transported right back to childhood. 😊
Thank you, Hands of Hope, for filling our home with creativity, laughter, and a little extra fun!
From six nature-inspired bedrooms and colorful murals to our saltwater aquarium, outdoor pond, and waterfall, every detail is designed to help medically fragile children feel comfortable, joyful, and welcome.
Children gather in Grand Park to play, share meals in the Nibbling Nook, and make memories in a space created just for them.
Because every child deserves a place where they belong. ❤️

💙 A heartfelt thank you to the Heart of Cook Fund through the Berrien Community Foundation for their generous grant support!
Because of partners like Heart of Cook, more medically fragile children can enjoy overnight respite care at A Rosie Place while their families receive the rest and peace of mind they deserve.
Together, we're creating a world of YES for children and families every day. ✨
Today we're celebrating first sleepovers, and the brave journey parents take when first trusting us with their whole world.
For many families of medically fragile children, a first sleepover isn't something they take for granted. It's a milestone built on trust, courage, and hope.
At A Rosie Place for Children, we've had the privilege of hosting hundreds of first sleepovers for medically fragile children!
While parents take a deep breath and trust us with this milestone, something incredible happens here: children simply get to be children.
They leave limitations at the door and step into a place where possibilities take center stage.
For 15 years, we've been creating a world of YES for medically fragile children and their families, one first at a time.
✨ Help us celebrate 15 years of milestones, memories, and moments that matter.
Celebrate 15 years of life-changing firsts at A Rosie Place for Children. Say YES to the next 15 years—give monthly and help create moments that matter.

Our children notice. The compassion. The patience. The expertise. Sometimes it looks like picking up a stethoscope and pretending to be one of the nurses they admire.
We're proud to have some of the best nurses in the game, both official and unofficial 😉💗
