We provide assistance to cancer patients that need temporary housing arrangements close to the location in which they are currently undergoing treatment at. This is usually done for patients that need daily radiation treatments for weeks at a time. We provide miscellaneous assistance by providing financial assistance for miscellaneous types of needs that are necessary to continue cancer treatment.
