Support Fisher House
The Fisher House program is a unique private-public partnership that supports America's military in their time of need by providing homes close to a loved one during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury.

There are currently 31 houses located on the grounds of every major military medical center and several VA medical centers. These houses will play a critical role in caring for casualties from Operation Iraqi Freedom. Donations will be used to help meet the cost of lodging for a family whose loved one was injured in Operation Enduring Freedom or Operation Iraqi Freedom. There is a limit to the number of families who can stay in a Fisher House and program is committed to help provide lodging for families who must find commercial lodging, because the Fisher House is full.

The Wounded Heroes Guest Book

Access the Wounded Heroes Guestbook to write a message of encouragement for a hero wounded in the line of duty.  

Messages in the Wounded Heroes Guestbook are viewed by wounded soldiers, their loved ones, and the general public.

Good Morning MoJo!!!! Thanks to you and the Sailor for everything that you do.

(((HUGS))) back at you. Both of us have been pretty busy. When we got some time off, we went and saw a couple of movies. (The Pirates of the Carribean was really good!)

We are still waiting for some important information from a good friend, so that we can go shopping.
