The Hope Lodge community offers cancer patients and their caregivers a free place to stay when their best hope for effective treatment may be away from home. The program provides a nurturing, home-like environment where guests can retreat to private rooms or connect with others. Without worrying about where to stay or how to pay for lodging, guests are able to focus on getting well.  They also offer a variety of resources and information on cancer.
