The renovated hospitality house will provide comfortable lodging for Ochsner LSU Health Shreveport – Feist-Weiller Cancer Center patients undergoing cancer treatment.
Why Support the McDade House Renovation Campaign?
A cancer diagnosis is never easy. By supporting this effort, you’ll help remove a significant burden cancer patients face and allow them to focus on their treatment.

The Solution
By restoring the McDade House, Feist-Weiller will be able to provide a low- or no-cost housing option for patients who must travel to Shreveport-Bossier from outside of the area, getting them out of the hospital and into a safe, home-like environment.
Donors play a major role in making this hospitality home possible for Feist-Weiller patients, faculty, and staff. Our campaign goal is to raise approximately $2.1 million to include the cost of renovation and three years of operating expenses for the McDade House.
