Thousands of your names have been added to the final beams of the new James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute and Critical Care Center, being raised Monday. The final beams of the expansion have traveled throughout central Ohio gathering signatures and support over the past several weeks. Those who couldn’t make it to a beam signing event have added their support through our Facebook page.
Thank you for showing your support for the researchers who will make discoveries, caregivers who will provide treatment and comfort and patients who will find hope within the new hospital’s walls.
Here are some of the photos from the signing events.

I am a 7 year breast cancer survivor thanks to Dr. Yee, Dr. Mrozek, and staff at the James. I love the pink ribbon on the crane and the pink lights at the top of the new James! It touched me to my core. I can even see it on my way to work. You are touching so many people. Thank you so much!
