The Toby Keith Foundation is one step closer to opening an $8.5 million facility for families of children undergoing cancer treatment. An Oklahoma City board approved the plans last week. The 25,000-square-foot building will have 12 overnight family suites to house relatives of kids getting treatment at a nearby children’s hospital and a nearby cancer center. Toby got interested after a former bandmate’s child died from cancer. The center, for now, is going to be called the OK Kids Korral. Organizers hope to have it completed by late 2013, with building starting in the spring.
