  • TEAM NEWS:
     
    Sixth grader, Stephanie Lundgren starts new business to help kids with cancer

  • Why Me families have dreamed about having a special healing place, a home, to help in the fight against childhood cancer. A respite far removed from the harsh hospital environment; A place where kids and their families can go to receive the support and encouragement they need to fight cancer; A gathering place for all those who wish to weigh-in in the fight against cancer.

    Sherry’s House provides no cost eight bedroom lodging for child cancer patients, their families and caregivers, throughout the cancer treatment process.
      Families whose child is being treated at any Massachusetts hospital come from all over the United States and Puerto Rico for a stay at Sherry's House.

    In addition, Sherry’s House is home to Child and Family Activities and Events: Family Fun Events, social visits, celebrations, mentoring and survivorship programs.  It houses our volunteer programs, Cancer Resource and Research Center, the Children’s Learning Center, and the organizational home of Why Me.  

    Sherry’s House is our greatest asset in helping comfort and care for children and families, throughout the treatment process and well beyond, greatly increasing our capacity to serve. 

    The Why Me organization is proud to have created just such a magical place in the heart of Central New England - Sherry’s House!
