​Austin’s Playroom Dedication at UPMC Outpatient Center in Hampton

WHAT: Dedication ceremony for the Austin’s Playroom located in the new UPMC Outpatient Center in Hampton.

 

WHY: Austin’s Playrooms were created by the Mario Lemieux Foundation to benefit families and improve the quality of a child’s experience, whether as a visitor or patient, by establishing cheerful playrooms that are safe, calming and comfortable. The playrooms give kids a chance to be kids during an otherwise stressful time.

 

The UPMC Outpatient Center in Hampton’s Austin’s Playroom was established by a generous donation from the Greater Pittsburgh Automobile Dealers Association (GPADA).
