PROVIDING #UNEXPECTEDAMAZINGNESS
Through the Light of Hope Family Program, we directly pay household bills to ensure our Families are able to stay in their homes, with a roof over their heads, utilities on, phones working, and food on the table while they are dealing with cancer. At Bringing Hope Home, we support every Family with cancer who applies for assistance regardless of gender, ethnicity, type of cancer, or age. Families are identified by social workers and referred to our Light of Hope Family Program.

FAMILY SURVEY
We reached out to all of our Families assisted in 2025 and asked a series of questions aimed at measuring the financial and emotional impact that our support had on them, specifically on their stress and healing. Below are the results of our survey received from 30% of the survey recipients. Based on the survey, 99.4% of Families believe that the BHH Light of Hope Family Program helped to bridge the financial gap for their Family.
THE STORIES BEHIND THE STATISTICS
Behind every percentage is a real Family navigating cancer with courage and uncertainty. The numbers tell us how support makes a difference, but their words tell us what that difference truly looks like.
