Healing through expression — new music therapy room opens at Prisma Health Children’s Hospital

COLUMBIA, SC (WOLO) — Healing through expression — that’s the goal of a brand new music therapy room at Prisma Health Children’s Hospital of the Midlands.

“Yea it makes me feel awesome,” says nine-year-old Jackson, a patient and now user of the new space.

Sponsored by the Panda Cares Center of Hope — the room was made possible in part by the popular restaurant chain Panda Express.

The organization reports raising millions of dollars alongside the Children’s Miracle Network to help hospitals in local communities.

“The Center of Hope is a big thing for us at Panda Express. Every customer that comes in the door — we ask if they would like to donate to the children’s hospital. It’s a very big impactful thing that we make sure we value everyday,” says Panda Express’s Hannah Holbrook.
