The American Cancer Society Hope Lodge Nebraska provides a free home away from home for cancer patients and their caregivers who must travel to receive their lifesaving treatment. More than just a roof over their heads, it's a nurturing community that helps patients access the care they need. Since opening its doors in January 2018, Hope Lodge Nebraska has served over 2,600 patients and caregivers from 27 different states, provided nearly 18,000 nights of lodging and has saved those families nearly $3 million dollars. A cancer diagnosis marks the beginning of a journey through physical, emotional, and practical challenges. Treatment close to home is always the first choice, but it is not always possible. When travel for treatment becomes necessary, many wonder if can be physically and emotionally endured or financially feasible. For some, it can become a barrier to survival.

With over 30 facilities in operation, each Hope Lodge offers cancer patients and their caregivers a free place to stay when their best hope for effective treatment may be in another city. Not having to worry about where to stay or how to pay for lodging allows guests to focus on getting better. Every Hope Lodge also offers a variety of resources and information about cancer and how best to fight the disease.

A recent guest from Orange City, Iowa shared, "At a time when everything in our life has been turned upside down, it has been so comforting to know that the Hope Lodge has remained a constant for us and has given us a comfortable caring place to stay that has eased our financial burden. It has given us a second family."

Just one of many stories of patients who must travel to Omaha for their lifesaving treatment. Guests who stay with at Hope Lodge Nebraska have an average 12-night stay. Providing access to care for patients allows them to focus on what is most important, getting well.

The need for volunteers and donations is ongoing as our guests are never charged for their time spent with us. Visit hopelodgenebraska.org today.
