Nationwide Children's Hospital understands that when a child needs a hospital, everything matters. That's why whimisical animal friends greet patients and visitors throughout the campus. To welcome. To delight. To take a child's mind off the reason for their visit.

Recently, we welcomed two new friends to our Magic Forest: Gus, an Irish Setter and Junebug, a Pomeranian. They are representations of Dale and Amy Earnhardt's two special, furry, four-legged family members. NASCAR Legend, Dale Jr., and his wife, Amy, are longtime champions of our patients and their families. They help support our work in pediatric injury rehabilitation, research and prevention. For each Gus & Junebug figurine sold, $10 will benefit the Dale and Amy Earnhardt Fund at Nationwide Children's.
