The Fisher House™ Program
The Fisher House™ program is a unique private-public partnership that supports America's military in their time of need. The program recognizes the special sacrifices of our men and women in uniform and the hardships of military service by meeting a humanitarian need beyond that normally provided by the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs.
Because members of the military and their families are stationed worldwide and must often travel great distances for specialized medical care, Fisher House™ Foundation donates "comfort homes," built on the grounds of major military and VA medical centers. These homes enable family members to be close to a loved one at the most stressful times - during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury.
There is at least one Fisher House™ at every major military medical center to assist families in need and to ensure that they are provided with the comforts of home in a supportive environment. Annually, the Fisher House™ program serves more than 12,000 families, and have made available nearly 3 million days of lodging to family members since the program originated in 1990. By law, there is no charge for any family to stay at a Fisher House operated by the Department of Veterans Affairs; and Fisher House Foundation uses donations to reimburse the individual Fisher Houses operated by the Army, Navy, and Air Force. No family pays to stay at any Fisher House!
The Foundation has received the highest possible ratings from the “watch dog” organizations that evaluate the effectiveness and efficiency of nonprofit organizations: For every dollar donated to Fisher House™ Foundation, 96 percent goes directly into Fisher House programs that help military families.
Online donations are completely safe and the most efficient way of donating (saving time and money), but checks are accepted. Please download and print the TFH Check Donation Form and mail the check and completed form to the address on the form.
Fisher House™ Foundation, Inc., is a not-for-profit organization under section 501(c)(3) of the IRS code. Donations are tax-deductible to the maximum extent allowed by law.

Dad continued to serve in the Navy until he exceeded the maximum age limit. He was a Master Chief for more than half of the 40+ years he served. There is nothing the Old Boy really needs this year for Christmas this year so I am donating what I would have spent on him to a cause that is close to his heart, The Fisher House. Thanks to the Fisher House for your services. Thank you to the families that the Fisher House helps. But most of all, thank you to all of our Veterans, past, present and future, who keep our country free.

Wow, what an undertaking. I have been the manager at Fisher House, Andrews AFB for 15 years, so I know what your support means to the men and women of our military. I am also a veteran, as were my father, siblings, husband and oldest son, who served two tours in Iraq. My youngest son, Geroge, attends Embrey Riddle Aeronautical University in Daytona and is in the ROTC program. He will become an Air Force officer upon graduation. I understand you will be in Daytona tomorrow and I hope he has a break in his hectic schedule to come out and greet you upon your arrival. There are hundres of ROTC students at the school who will one day serve. Today was their first day back since holiday break, but he is hoping to energize the cadets into doing something to help you out. Your trek brings such a poignant focus on our program and I'm sure that those you meet along the way are inspired to find ways to help. Thank you

I believe I was with your Dad, when you called him, to inform him, that you had gotten your command (Your Dad, Dave Reibel, and I) Barry was so high, his feet never hit the ground!
I have kmow your dad, for ever, I think since grade K at EJ Brown Elem School - Daytoin, Ohio. He was a team-mate and I am happy to say a good friend for life!
Your Grandfather, Bud, once got me a summer job, at Inland Manf.
I became the first white janitor in their history!. He said they only had (1) job opening, and I probably would not want it!
He then told me what it paid!!! ( Union Job ) I was there the next day, it helped pay for college and fun that summer!

Thanks for choosing me for a friend. I certainly enjoyed our times together.
I give to several military related causes. Faith is in the 167th ANG and I am so proud of her. I thought Josh would be the one in the military. Just goes to show. She is the only reason that I joined Facebook. Everyone said she was posting why she hadn't returned from her recent mission abroad and I figured that was the only way to get in touch. She doesn't respond to ordinary e-mail, this generation. I was able to get in touch with her right away. She returned last night. I am soooooo proud of her.

We should be backing the efforts of the Arizona Governor in her courageous stand on immigration. Those who don't understand her efforts should go to Arizona on the border, and to Venezuela to see what it is like on the border.

God in His wisdom made the fly
And then forgot to tell us why.
~Ogden Nash,
Horse flies posses one of the fiercest bites of any common fly species. Unlike the nearly painless bite of the mosquito and other biting flies, horse flies are equipped with scissor-like mandibles that tear flesh. While male horse flies feed on pollen and are important pollinators, females feed on blood in order to assist in egg development.

I can only imagine the number of “pages” you’ve written within the lives of those you’ve met along the way, and likewise, how many have been written within your own. Regardless, however, I think that it’s safe to say that everyone’s “collection” is a now little more complete. We need more people like you and more organizations like the Fisher House to pay tribute to the bravery of the young men and women who have sacrificed so much for our country. We, as civilians, will never know the true price of freedom. And, for this reason, we should forever feel indebted… Thank you and may God bless. "

I have been wanting to make some donations to help those flooded in the heartland or those ravaged by tornadoes. But I have been unemployed for a year now andcouldn't get off the fence. I was driving home from church this morning and heard you talking about raising money for Fisher House. Well your good voice got me off the fence and I am making a donation to Fisher House and also to the Salvation Army. God has blessed me in many ways and I am passing along a very tiny part of those blessings to some of those who can use them today.
Thanks for doing such good work for our serriously wounded soldiers and their families.

"Hi, Brian,
Great work on behalf of our wounded warriors! I'm on limited income, but I just rounded up my hourly wage (when I work) and donated the dollar value of one hour of my time. Maybe, if you encouraged others to do just that much, we could bump up the total.
Also, in the heart of Silicon Valley, where are the mega-bucks guys who could fund the Fisher House for a year, or ten years, just out of pocket change? These are the guys who can cough up $10,000, $50,000 or more for a meeting with the politician-in-charge, but can't come up with some substantial support for our wounded troops right in their own back yard? For Shame! I say, put the bite on these guys to fund the building of the next Fisher House in our area, and fund both of them in perpetuitu with a trust fund!
Best,

It was our pleasure to meet you this morning at 0900 as you were closing your show at the Fisher House. As I just saw the total estimate approaching $112,000 obviously you under estimated the KSFO audience. How about $125,000? Thalia and I consider you as a true professional and our Christian friend.
We appreciate the Palo Alto VA Medical Center for helping to keep me alive all of these years as this is my 59th year as a paraplegic since December 1952 where I was injured in a crash of the F-80 I was flying for the Japan Air Defense Force. We have not used the Fisher House as we live in Mountain View, just 6 miles from the VA Hospital. Perhaps you read about that event and my subsequent rehabilitation in my book, "In Search of Eagles".
We appreciate you and your team at KSFO. Thank you for all you do for our veterans!
