The University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital reached a huge one year anniversary milestone. Dance Marathon has been a great partner as their $5 million donation galvanized the building. The Dance Marathon Pediatric Oncology Unit will be built on the 11th floor in their honor. The Fellowship for Child Life Program gives additional Human Resources support as well as Care in clinic and patient stay. The Child Life staff helped normalize the experience for children in the hospital.
