About
The Philoxenia House has two lovely and fully furnished two-bedroom apartments, designed to provide comfort and to answer the temporary lodging needs for out-of-town patients and their families during cancer treatment in Seattle. It is conveniently located close to the Fred Hutch, Seattle Cancer Care Alliance, and Children’s Hospital.
Philoxenia House is managed as a Ministry of Saint Demetrios Greek Orthodox Church, Seattle. Parishioners within the community are committed to support patients coming to Seattle for treatment and to help make their stay easier.
Temporary housing is free with a nominal donation request and deposits. Housing guests are accepted from a waiting list.
Donations
Donations of any amount are appreciated and will assist us in raising the remaining $50,000 of our reconstruction budget and $20,000 of our projected ongoing operating Budget.
Please join us in supporting this very worthy cause.
