Fisher House Foundation, Inc. is an international, not-for-profit organization established to improve the quality of life for members of the military, veterans, and their families. The Foundation builds comfort homes at military and VA medical centers and gifts them to the government. Other Quality of Life programs include the Hero Miles and Hotels for Heroes programs, ongoing assistance to Fisher Houses, scholarships, support for continuing rehabilitation initiatives, and individual assistance to members of the military and their families during a crisis.

Fisher House offers a warm, compassionate environment where families find support and encouragement from others in similar circumstances. It is a “home away from home” and provides a sense of comfort so that families can be together while a loved one in undergoing medical treatment.

There is no fee for families staying at the Fisher House. The house is 13,500 square feet, with 16 private guest suites. Each suite and room is professionally decorated and beautifully furnished. In addition to private bedrooms and bathrooms, the house includes: a common kitchen, spacious common dining room, inviting common family room and living room, common laundry facility, in-room telephone and TV/DVD player, and free Wi-Fi access throughout the house.

Guests must be family members or caregivers of active duty or veteran in-patients, or those

receiving extended, episodic out-patient therapy. Guests must live 50 miles or more from the treating facility. Minor children must be supervised by their families at all times. Only one room is assigned to each family.

Officers of the Siena Conservatives Club request our members come together and provide a major donation package for residents of Fisher House. Resident needs are identical to ours, including everyday personal toiletries, snacks, those other items similar to those you would send a grandchild away at school or deployed overseas during the holidays. The house needs the same products necessary to maintain a home on a daily basis. Click the link house’s wish list: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/3H4TKY977EN5H/ref=hz_ls_biz_ex
