Pennsylvania Division Celebrates Hope Lodge Groundbreaking

Welcome to the AstraZeneca Hope Lodge of the American Cancer Society in Philadelphia, opening in 2009.
At the AstraZeneca Hope Lodge, we understand that undergoing treatment for cancer can be both financially and emotionally overwhelming. For many, treatment at Philadelphia's medical centers provides the greatest hope, but requires that they be far from home, adding the additional burden of travel and lodging expenses. That is why the AstraZeneca Hope Lodge of the American Cancer Society offers lodging at no cost for cancer patients being treated in the Philadelphia area.
Having cancer is hard. Finding help shouldn't be.
Getting emotional and social support from other survivors can be as important as getting the proper medical care. At the AstraZeneca Hope Lodge, patients live with other people going through similar experiences, and are supported by caring staff and volunteers. The nurturing, comfortable environment at Hope Lodge allows patients to focus on what is most important - fighting cancer.
