WE THANK ALL OF OUR GENEROUS DONORS
It was once said of Fisher House program founder Zachary Fisher, "If you were to describe Zachary Fisher's impact on this country, it would be much like describing how wind works in nature. You do not actually see wind, but you see the effects of wind and feel wind upon your face. Like a strong steady wind of compassion, Zachary's effects can be seen and indeed felt by the thousands of service members and their families during what for many is the time of their greatest challenge and difficulty."
We are deeply gratified that our supporters have the same kind of impact.
Our Sincerest Thanks to You!
