CASE SUMMARY
SickKids is known as a state-of-the-art facility for sick children. Few people are aware that the aging building does not always feel like a hotel stay for those being treated, especially in the Paediatric Intensive Care Unit (PICU), where families have less space, privacy and comfort. Working with No Fixed Address, SickKids transformed a hospital boardroom into a PICU and then listed the space on Airbnb. To further immerse guests in the experience, it used interviews with families, doctors and nurses to recreate an authentic, three-hour soundscape and live reenactment. Toronto Raptor Fred VanFleet was among the first to spend a night in the unit. Over 26,000 people visited the listing over the course of the campaign, which earned more than 120 million impressions, and SickKids saw a 27% increase in donations.Credits
