ROOM TO BREATHE

Sometimes you just need room to breathe for one night.

Whether it’s the middle of the week to get away from home distractions or driving a few hours to your support system for a hug, you might need a place to stay. Perhaps you’re expecting a long day of treatment and you need somewhere to rest your head or maybe you want to head out to your nearest outlet for retail therapy and shop until you drop! Whatever you need, wherever you want to go, we got you. This initiative is to give you an opportunity to just breathe and regroup for the night. You choose the place and time, and we’ll cover your overnight stay!

“I was able to just breathe and relax without stress…

or worrying about taking my next trip to the doctor. I spend a lot of time going back and forth to different doctors’ appointments so it’s frustrating for me at times having to deal with all my medical issues. This is a wonderful organization that’s helping lots of women to breathe and relax through a very difficult and traumatic period in their lives.”
