We are devoted to creating positive, healing, lovely and uplifting spaces that spiritually, emotionally, and physically support those dealing with challenges to their health. Our process is rooted in the science and psychology of holistic healing. Studies show that nurturing and creative environments greatly impact the healing process.
By collaborating with interior designers, local vendors and facilities that provide treatment we are able to transform unimaginative often sterile spaces into vibrant, warm and peaceful environments that make a real difference for chemotherapy patients, their families, and their caregivers.
We are able to continue our work through the generous and loving support of people like you. RTR4C is a 501(c)(3) non-profit volunteer organization operating through contributions, in-kind donations, and proceeds from fund-raising events. We do not receive state or federal funding.

Hospitals can be sad, difficult places and it is easy to forget they are also places of hope and healing. Your work reminds patients and their caregivers of this. The care and compassion you show for patients you have never known nor will ever know shows what a kind person you are. Thank you.
We absolutely LOVE what you’ve done with the rooms!!! We love it and the patients I roomed in there this morning love it!!! We can’t express enough appreciation and gratitude for your work. Thank you, Thank you!!!
I absolutely love the new color scheme. It’s soothing and the stencils are adorable. This makes it even better. Thanks!
15 Years ago my Father went thru treatments and I remembered how sad I’d be visiting the units, Not only was my Dad Dying but it was a “Sad” Surroundings. I knew if I could do my little part to make it a little easier for the patients, I wanted to be a part of “Rocking the Rooms” It has fed my Soul and Heart!
