News House to aid patient families BY KAYLA CARRICK STAFF WRITER Since the birth of an idea in 2001, leaders have been working to fill the housing needs of hospital patients and their families. The dream ofbuilding a 40-room house for critically ill adult patients, family members and care givers particularly those staying at UNC Hospitals for an extended time peri od could soon become a reality. The plan for Family House now has made its way onto the town’s political agenda in the form of a peti tion for a one-time $25,000 grant The Chapel Hill Town Council referred the petition to the town staff at its Monday meeting. The grant could be payable dur ing a four- or five-year period. “This is very small,” said Greg Kirkpatrick, director of develop ment and capital campaign man ager for Family House. “It’s less than .5 percent of the total funding that we’re asking for.” Similar proposals asking for help with the capital costs of the project also have been issued to Carrboro ■ A Virginia woman was served multiple warrants Monday in rela tion to a car chase she engaged in Thursday with Chapel Hill police on Weaver Dairy Road, according to Chapel Hill police reports.

For the many families that already must pay medical bills, hotel costs are tough to handle. “Family House is to act as afford able lodging because there’s noth ing in Chapel Hill that’s affordable for a long stay,” Kirkpatrick said. Family House needs to raise $6.3 million to begin construction. So far about $4.2 million has been raised through donations from organiza tions, corporations and individuals. The State Employees’ Credit Union Foundation got the fund raising ball rolling with a $2 mil lion gift in June. “This is really manageable. We’re just going to keep putting out pro posals,” Kirkpatrick said. With hopes of opening its doors in 2007, Family House has issued proposals totaling $2.3 million and plans to raise funds throughout the Triangle after construction begins.
