“Hope Lodge is more than just a room, more than just a space for me to stay. It was, and it still is, a relief to my heart and to my soul.” – Hilda cancer survivor
- At over 30 locations across the United States, our Hope Lodge® program offers a home away from home for people facing cancer and their families when treatment is far away.
- Hope Lodge® serves over 29,000 patients and caregivers each year, saving more than $55 million in lodging costs.
Getting the best care sometimes means cancer patients must travel away from home. This can place an extra emotional and financial burden on patients and caregivers during an already challenging time. The American Cancer Society is trying to make this difficult situation easier for both cancer patients and their families through our lodging programs.
