Honolulu Hope Gala


The American Cancer Society is the leading cancer-fighting organization with a vision to end cancer as we know it, for everyone.

We are the only organization improving the lives of people with cancer and their families through advocacy, research, and patient support to ensure that everyone has an opportunity to prevent, detect, treat, and survive cancer.

Why the Hope Lodge?

Giving Hope a Home

More than 8,000 Hawai‘i residents are diagnosed with cancer every year.

For neighbor island patients, traveling out of town for the best possible treatment can make cancer more difficult, and for many it is not a possible option due to the expense. Hope Lodge Hawai‘i is changing that.

Hope Lodge is more than just temporary housing – it is a comprehensive cancer resource that provides the emotional support and education that are critical to recovery. Research has shown that patients who stay at a Hope Lodge are more likely to complete their treatment. Guests experience reduced financial strain and improved quality of life. More than just a place to sleep, Hope Lodge is a community of caring and resources to give patients and caregivers hope when home is far away.
