Brent's Place 2022 Impact Report

We are grateful for you

Thanks to your partnership, last year Brent’s Place provided access to lifesaving medical treatment to more families than ever before. We were also proud to celebrate our 25th anniversary of being the only long-term, Safe-Clean housing option in the Rocky Mountain West region that supports the entire family.

20 States Served

21,000+ Days of Housing Provided

Less than $50,000 Reported Household Income for More Than Half of Our Families

Thanks to the generosity of our donors and shared commitment of our hospital partners, we provide 100% of our programs and services without additional financial burden to our families. This allows caregivers to focus on their loved one’s treatment and recovery and their family’s well-being rather than the steep cost of relocation, housing, food, and other basic necessities.

Our Doors of Hope and Healing

Although Brent’s Place was originally designed to meet the needs of pediatric bone marrow transplant patients, we have expanded our focus to include adult oncology families and solid organ transplant patients of all ages.

Scarlett, a 22-year-old facing an AML diagnosis, benefitted from our extensive food programming in a special way: all of the meals, groceries, and snacks we provided aligned with her vegetarian diet.

There are just no words to fully describe how much you’ve helped my family and my son fighting leukemia. When you give a person fresh hope in goodness it’s incredibly powerful when all I saw was darkness for so long. Brent’s Place is a miracle. Thank you again a million times.
