Explore Sherry’s House

A welcoming place to stay, find comfort, and feel supported.

When a child is diagnosed with cancer, families often find themselves traveling long distances for treatment, spending time away from home, and adjusting to an entirely new routine. Sherry’s House was created to help make that journey a little easier.

Located in Worcester, Massachusetts, Sherry’s House provides free, temporary lodging for families whose child is receiving cancer treatment at a Central New England hospital. More than just a place to sleep, it offers a warm, comfortable environment where families can take a break from the demands of treatment, spend time together, and find support along the way.

With eight welcoming bedrooms and shared spaces designed with families in mind, Sherry’s House offers a home away from home during a time when having a comfortable place to land can make all the difference.

Sherry’s House features eight kid-friendly bedrooms, each with its own hand-painted mural inspired by imaginative themes such as Under the Sea, The Jungle Book, Circus Tent, and Storybook & Fairytales. Each room offers families a welcoming space to relax and enjoy some privacy during their stay.

Families also have access to shared spaces throughout the house, including a family kitchen and comfortable common areas where they can prepare meals, spend time together, and enjoy a break from the hospital routine.

Every detail of Sherry’s House is intended to create a warm, family-friendly atmosphere where children can feel comfortable and parents can find a little breathing room.

A childhood cancer diagnosis can turn everyday life upside down. Between hospital visits, treatment schedules, and time away from home, families need more than a place to sleep. They need comfort, understanding, and the reassurance that they aren’t facing this journey alone.

At Sherry’s House, families are welcomed into a community that understands the challenges of childhood cancer. There is comfort in knowing that others have walked a similar path and that support is nearby when it’s needed. Whether sharing a meal, enjoying a quiet moment, or simply having a comfortable place to return to after a long day at the hospital, Sherry’s House offers families a little normalcy during an otherwise uncertain time.

Our hope is that every family who stays at Sherry’s House feels welcomed, supported, and at home.
