Shave to Save is a bold and meaningful way for our community to rally together in the fight against breast cancer. Friends, families, and company teams join forces to raise funds that directly support the World Wide Technology American Cancer Society Hope Lodge St. Louis—a free home away from home where cancer patients and their caregivers can stay during treatment. By stepping up to shave, participants not only show solidarity with those facing cancer, but also provide comfort, care, and hope when it’s needed most. Together, we can make a lasting difference for patients and families right here in St. Louis.
American Cancer Society Hope Lodge® communities offer a home away from home for people facing cancer and their caregivers when cancer treatment is far away. Our 30+ Hope Lodge communities provide a free place to stay during treatment so people with cancer can focus on getting better. These communities provide comfortable guest suites with private baths, as well as inviting spaces with all the comforts of home, including a communal kitchen, dining area, laundry rooms, and places to gather or find a quiet respite – all at no cost to guests.
Hope Lodge guests don’t just find a place to stay – they find a community of support and an emotional connection with others facing the same journey.
