In our first ten months of operations at Ulman House, we have welcomed guests from 30 miles away to 4,200.
Young adults living with rare cancers and more common ones.
Caregivers standing by their spouses, children, parents, friends, and those with whom “it’s complicated.”
They’ve stayed for just one night; they’ve stayed for more than 150 nights. Here are our residential recap numbers.

From Our Residents
“What Ulman has done for us is: to help us use our resources to care for our daughter, to give us a place where we feel safe, and to give us a place that we don’t feel alone in the really frightening battle to save her life. We are so grateful!”
“My stay at Ulman House has further inspired me to stay in touch with the Ulman Foundation and understand that this part of my life shouldn’t necessarily be thought of with grief, but with happiness that I was able to persist and move forward with my life.”
“Not only did Ulman provide housing & financial assistance but indirectly, emotional support by connecting me to a community and second family (of navigators, and other patients and caregivers) during treatment.”
Overall Impact
These numbers tell a deeper story – no one can face cancer alone. Thank you for making sure they don’t have to.
