Receiving the right cancer care often means patients must travel far from home for treatment. American Cancer Society Hope Lodge communities provide a free home away from home for people facing cancer and their caregivers. Each of these 31 communities nationwide offers an inviting, supportive environment with all the comforts of home, including a communal kitchen, dining area, laundry rooms, and gathering spaces. Hope Lodge communities offer a source of peer support and comfort for guests right here in Tampa Florida, Richard M Schulze Family Foundation Hope Lodge.
The American Cancer Society reduces financial strain, makes treatment more accessible, and improves the quality of life for thousands of cancer patients each year. Funds raised at the Tampa Golf Classic will help them make sure there is always a place to stay when treatment is far from home.
The American Cancer Society is the leading cancer-fighting organization with a vision to end cancer as we know it, for everyone. We are the only organization improving the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research, and patient support to ensure that everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.
