About us | Families are stronger when they are together and their presence helps a sick child cope better. Since opening in July of 1998, the House has served more than 4,600 families for more than 56,500 nights. Without our House, families might have to sleep in the hospital lobby, a child’s hospital room or even in their cars, as most families cannot afford a hotel room for weeks or sometimes months – especially under the financial stress of mounting medical bills. |
