Light Up the Night to Light Up a Life

Butterfly sculptures will illuminate in real-time when donations are made, creating an interactive experience that will raise money to support the life-saving work of Nationwide Children’s Hospital

The butterflies are coming back this holiday season! 🦋

Dozens of multicolored butterflies cover the lawn at Nationwide Children Hospital, illuminating each time a donation is made to the hospital. It’s a new holiday tradition that builds hope and joy for hospitalized children, families and the health care heroes caring for them.

NRG Energy, Bread Financial, and Hexion are committed to the Nationwide Children’s Hospital Light Up a Life Holiday Campaign. Showcase your brand and promote your commitment to children’s health. Nationwide Children’s Hospital is welcoming the return of our annual initiative “Light Up the Lawn, Light Up a Life” – a new holiday tradition that builds hope and joy for hospitalized children, families and the health care heroes caring for them.

We want to make sharing the holiday spirit as easy as possible and give our community the opportunity to spread joy to those who cannot be home for the holidays.”

Through the end of the year, anyone who gives a gift of $10 or more will instantly light up butterflies on the lawn and throughout inpatient units. Donors can make their gift from anywhere using their cellphone or laptop and watch the lawn light via a live-stream video feed. Other levels of giving will fund specific opportunities – in addition to lighting the lawn – to surprise patients and staff.

  • With a $100 gift, a blue butterfly pillow and cheer card will be delivered to a patient.
  • With a $500 gift, five blue butterfly pillows and cheer cards will be delivered to five patients.
  • A $1,000 gift will sponsor an 18” (tabletop) blue butterfly, and a staff workstation will receive a holiday sweet treat basket.

Cancer survivor La’Miya shows how transforming the lawn in front of Nationwide Children’s Hospital with a butterfly-themed light display can bring hope to children who are hospitalized this holiday season. The display illuminates with a flutter effect each time a donation is made. Visible to children in the hospital tower, it not only supports their care, but entertains and delights children who are most in need of added joy this season.
