A proposal that I made for my Introduction to Technical Communications class. I centered my proposal around the construction of a playground on land purchased nearby a children’s hospital. The idea was that children who made regular trips to the hospital, whether because they were ill or had ill family members, would benefit mentally, physically, and socially by having a playground nearby to visit after hospital trips or between stays.
