- Private bath with each guest room
- Great Room with large kitchen, dining and living areas

J.B. Hunt Transport Services Cancer Support Home exists to provide hope and comfort to those on a cancer journey. All programs and services offered through the Cancer Support Home are provided at no cost to our clients. We are grant and donor funded.
Campaign
The campaign goal for the construction of the Cancer Support Home was $4.1 million. To date, this has been met through generous donations including the capstone gift from J.B. Hunt Transport Services Inc.
Naming opportunities are available as funds are still needed for operation of the home.
Campaign chairs are Tamara and John Roberts and their family. “Our family is pleased to serve as the chairs for the Washington Regional Cancer Support Home capital campaign. We are moved by the support available to Cancer Support Home clients and their families as they navigate the unfamiliar road of a cancer diagnosis.”
