Rooms To Go Partners with Tampa General Hospital for Patient Transplant House Reopening
Bringing Comfort to Transplant Patients and Families in Tampa.
April 2025
Rooms To Go is honored to support the recent renovation and reopening of Tampa General Hospital's (TGH) Transplant Houses on Davis Islands, which provide free lodging for transplant patients and their caregivers traveling long distances for life-saving treatment.
Rooms To Go is proud to support the renewal of the Bayshore, Harbourview, and Gulfview transplant homes alongside dedicated community partners. Each of these residences now offers a refreshed, inviting atmosphere designed to promote healing and comfort for patients recovering from organ transplants. Our donation of stylish, high-quality furnishings was carefully curated to enhance both the beauty and functionality of these vital homes - helping to create a true sense of home when it's needed most.
“Rooms To Go is delighted to support Tampa General Hospital and the patients who rely on the transplant houses during their treatment there,” said Jeff Marple, corporate executive for Rooms To Go. “We believe providing a comfortable and attractive space will aid in the healing process and are proud to be part of it.”

Since their opening in 2019, the TGH Transplant Houses have served over 300 patients and their families, offering free, temporary housing just minutes from the main hospital. These homes are a vital part of TGH's nationally recognized transplant program, which performed more than 600 transplants last year alone.
"Thanks to the support of generous donors like Rooms To Go, we've been able to continue providing this critical resource for patients receiving transplant care at TGH," said Kelly Cullen, executive vice president and chief operating officer at Tampa General Hospital. "These homes reflect our commitment to compassionate, patient-centered care."

Rooms To Go is proud to be part of a project that brings comfort and dignity to patients and their loved ones when they need it most.
