About Us
American Cancer Society Hope Lodge® communities offer a home away from home for people facing cancer and their caregivers when cancer treatment is far away.” The Hope Lodge Volunteering Partnership endeavors to support this mission statement through the facilitation of consistent group service trips and projects at the Cleveland Hope Lodge, specifically by partnering with undergraduate students and their diverse interests. The organization strives to combine engaging activities- such as cooking events, musical performances, and interactive projects with Hope Lodge staff- with a strong understanding of how meaningful service can be a positive light for patients who are away from home and receiving cancer treatment. The organization aims to educate members on the nuances of patient care for those receiving cancer treatment and the barriers that may exist for access to care through collaborations with active professionals in the fields of public health and medicine as well as leaders in the Hope Lodge. Club members will be able to use club resources to become registered volunteers at the Cleveland Hope Lodge and propose their own events that seek to serve the Hope Lodge community.
