About us
The Fisher House program provides “a home away from home” for service members, veterans, and their families who are receiving medical treatment at a military or VA hospital. These special houses provide free temporary lodging, private suites, and are walking distance to the medical centers. The homes not only create an instant community for its residents, but also provide each family with a secure and private refuge after a long day to rest and recharge.

The last thing a family needs to worry about is where they will stay when their service member is injured. Through donated hotel reward points, our Hotels for Heroes Program provides hotel rooms to families of wounded, injured, & ill military service members who are undergoing treatment at authorized medical centers when a Fisher House is not available.
