NATIONWIDE CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL

LIGHT UP THE LAWN

  • Nationwide Children’s Hospital (NCH) needed a boost to their annual giving campaign during a time when many potential donors were experiencing financial uncertainty. Taking inspiration from the butterfly in NCH’s logo, we created a way to let donors see how their gifts have a positive impact on children spending the holidays in the hospital. 100 larger-than-life butterfly sculptures were installed on the front lawn of the hospital campus. With every donation, the butterflies illuminated. With this light show as the centerpiece of the campaign, the fundraising goal was exceeded. We’re now in the highly anticipated second year of the campaign.

With every donation, the butterflies illuminated

The moment a donation was made, the NCH lawn transformed as butterflies lit up for patients and donors to see either in person or via a live stream. The live stream allowed those donating from off site to see the butterflies, as well as families and patients too sick to get out of bed.
