STAT PATIENTS FAMILY SERVICES

In 1974 Msgr. Russell "Russ" Kohler began working with cancer youth and established the Pope John XXIII Hospitality House for Cancer Outpatients & Families (Learn More). This unique homelike residence near the Detroit Medical Center hospitals provided a temporary residence to cancer patients undergoing outpatient treatment and their families, along with transportation services and recreational outings. The STAT Patients Family Services organization was established to provide administration of the facility... The Msgr. Russ Kohler Children's Cancer Endowment Fund grant program has been able to provide financial assistance to families in need in part through The Rainbow Connection in Rochester, MI. In the spring of 2020, we received these accolades from the directors of this important program that grants wishes to Michigan children with life-threatening illnesses.
