The American Cancer Society's Hope Lodges in Burlington, Vermont, and Worcester, Massachusetts, offer a temporary home to patients and a family member who must travel far for treatment. The New England Division is now involved in a very exciting capital campaign to build a new Hope Lodge in Boston, and to replace the old Hope Lodge Burlington with a new, much larger facility. The new Burlington Hope Lodge is scheduled to open in the fall of 2007, and the AstraZeneca Hope Lodge Center of Boston, now under construction, is scheduled to open in the fall of 2008.
