Many cancer patients face weeks or months of treatment away from home. At the same time, they often struggle to manage medical bills and other financial burdens associated with the costs of travel. Some patients even forgo treatment due to the strain of trying to find a place to stay and the cost. Located at 6801 Ardmore, conveniently near the Texas Medical Center, is the American Cancer Society’s largest living facility in the country; Richard M. Schulze Family Foundation Hope Lodge. The purpose of Hope Lodge is to provide free lodging and amenities for patients 12 and older undergoing active cancer treatment in Houston if they permanently reside 40 or more miles away. Patients must be referred by their health care provider.
More than just a roof over their heads, the 64-patient suite lodge acts as a home away from home for the patient and their family member/caregiver providing a nurturing community that helps them access the care they need. The Hope Lodge facility in Houston is funded strictly through generous community support which includes individuals, corporations and private trusts/foundations giving cancer patients and a family member/caregiver the opportunity of not having to worry about where to stay or how to pay for lodging, allowing them to focus on their health and healing. We are counting on you to be part of the Hope. Join VICTORY and the Cattle Baron’s Ball effort to leave a lasting legacy and help the lives of every cancer patient that walks through our doors with your gift.
