RICHMOND, Va. (WTVR) - A Hampton Roads foundation brought joy to a sick child in the form of a new play set.

The Roc Solid Foundation has been giving away play sets to kids with pediatric cancer as a part of their "Pay It Forward" program.

The play set, which was built yesterday and finished today, came as a surprise to Eleanor Brooks, a 4-year-old leukemia patient.

The Roc Solid Foundation was founded in 2008.  Since then, it has built 38 playgrounds for kids.  The foundation is funded through personal contributions, sponsorships and official fundraising events.
