The Hope Lodge is a place where people getting cancer treatment as well as one of their caregivers can stay for free. They just need to live at least 40 miles away and be over 18.
The Cleveland Hope Lodge saved guests $1.2 million last year, but Polson said the Hope Lodge has helped her with more than just cutting costs.
Polson has been fighting an uphill battle against leukemia. She was hoping chemo and radiation would cure her, but her doctors told he she needed a bone marrow transplant. After they couldn’t find a match, her son volunteered. The Cleveland Hope Lodge is the only place like it for adults in Northeast Ohio so unfortunately there is a wait list, but the good news is they’re expanding. They broke ground on a construction project in June and they’re hoping to wrap it up by the fall of 2024.
