     The need for this house is great as there is currently no other facility in the Charleston area that provides these specialized services for hematological cancer patients.  These patients must be within close proximity to the hospital during phases of pre- and post-treatment, and must be isolated from the general population due to a suppressed immune system.  Transplant patients are required to remain within close proximity to the hospital for a period one hundred days and are seen daily and extensively by their doctors and treatment centers... All of these circumstances add to the crisis of the disease itself with financial and emotional burdens.

     During the past two years we searched extensively for a house that met the requirements necessary for these out-patients.  On October 24, 2006 we reached an agreement with the American Cancer Society Hope Lodge and will partner with them to renovate a house located at 273 Calhoun Street in Charleston, SC.  The monies for these renovations will be raised through donations, fund raisers, grants, and corporate sponsors.  All money donated goes directly to the Parker Miracle House Foundation, Inc. for the purpose of funding and furnishing this house and patient care.  There is an immediate need to renovate this house as soon as possible to accommodate the special needs of these persons.  There will also be an immediate need for home furnishings and supplies that will be from donated sources.  In addition, naming rights to the house, grounds and rooms will be made available to recognize, honor, and memorialize at varying monetary levels.  Our philanthropic goals must continue in perpetuity to maintain this facility and provide this much needed service.
