American Cancer Society Hope Lodge
The first-ever Relay for Life of Hope Lodge will be from 5-10 p.m. on Aug. 8 at the American Cancer Society Joe Lee Griffin Hope Lodge, located at 1104 Ireland Way, Birmingham. The Hope Lodge is a facility that gives 33 cancer patients and their caregivers a free place to stay while they are in town undergoing cancer treatment. The event will include laps walked for survivors and caregivers and luminaria and lantern lift ceremonies. Luminaria and sky lanterns can be purchased in honor or memory of a loved one on the American Cancer Society’s website at www.relayforlife.org/hopelodgebirminghamal. That is also the website to visit for more information on donating or starting a team for the event.
