Group homes for breast cancer patients

I live in the South Suburbs/Illinois and am searching for a Group Home that shelters patients with Breast Cancer.

As a Previous employee of McDonald's Corporation I put a request/suggestion for a Pink Ribbon House to be built on the grounds of Christ Advocate/Oak Lawn IL similar to the Ronald McDonald's Homes for parents/children.

I know I am not alone struggling to make ends meet with my Social Security check of $582.00/month. Numerous hospitalizations and various complications this past year (not to mention 2 Slum Lord Legal situations back to back in less than a year)

Does Susan G. Koman or Relay for Life or Cancer Society provide funding for Group Homes throughout the U.S. ? From what I have researched, none can be found.

Just a thought and eventually a goal of mine.
