OUR VISION AND MISSION
Halo House was founded in 2009 to ensure that everyone battling blood cancer has access to an affordable "home away from home" during treatment in Houston. We save lives of patients battling leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma by providing clean, safe, affordable housing while they pursue treatment at the Texas Medical Center.
THE OVERWHELMING
NEED FOR EXPANSION
Blood cancer treatment forces families to travel far from home, but finding a safe, affordable place to stay is a crushing burden. Without a home away from home, families are often forced to choose between treatment and financial stability.

YOUR INVESTMENT CHANGES LIVES
​Cost Comparison
.png)
With your support, a night at Halo House costs a blood cancer patient just $25, compared to an average of $129 for a hotel.
Over 75% Raised
To date we have provided
95,000+ days of housing, but with
only 33 apartments and a consistently
long list of people who have applied for an apartment at Halo House, we can help only a fraction of those in need. Your investment will be crucial in helping us break ground within the next 12 months.
Expansion Doubles Capacity
Our expansion will more than double our capacity, from 33 to 76 apartments, providing a haven for an additional 43 families each night so more cancer warriors have a place to call home. ​
The Halo House Expansion Will Include
-
New 34,000 sq ft - 3 story building
-
43 new apartments
-
3 new lounges for family gatherings
-
Resident business center with micro conference rooms
-
Large, peaceful gardens
-
Additional office and storage space
-
Children's play room
-
72 new parking spots
