Hunter's Home - Home of Hope and A Future

Hunter’s Hope acquired a 2-bedroom, 2-bath apartment in April 2005, a 2-bedroom, 1-bath in March 2006, and another 2-bedroom, 2-bath in March 2007 for our Leukodystrophy families to stay in while getting treatment (bone marrow or cord blood transplant or pre/post transplant check-ups) for their children at Duke University Hospital in Durham, North Carolina.

Our apartments are fully furnished with all the furniture donated from one of our Strategic Partners, Aaron Rents.  The rest of the apartment furnishings (kitchen appliances, dishes, bedding, towels, etc.) have been donated from Bed, Bath & Beyond, Wal-Mart, Liam Hammonds Memorial Foundation and some from our very own families.

The apartments are 4.7 miles from Duke Hospital and are open to all leukodystrophy families when available.  There is no charge for a family to stay at a “Hunter’s Home”, but donations can be made if the family is able and wants to.

Since acquiring our apartments they have been occupied on a continual basis, with the families staying anywhere from 2 weeks to 1 year.

We are always accepting donations to assist with the cost of constantly updating and improving our apartments. Monetary donations or gift cards (Bed, Bath & Beyond, Wal-Mart, JC Penney, Sears or Target stores) would greatly be appreciated.

If you would like to donate or check availability, please contact Kelly Brown, Director of Family Programs at kelly@huntershope.org
