Community Partnerships: A Legacy of Caring
The best gifts are the ones that keep on giving. We are grateful for the companies who have partnered with us in unique, creative ways to sustain the mission of the Friends of Fisher House Puget Sound
Your gift allows guests to be near their loved ones, have a comfortable, peaceful place of rest and support for themselves and all at no cost. Thanks to you, Veterans and active duty Military families have a “home away from home”. This includes providing the simple assurance of knowing what is for dinner and basic comforts of home, creating a peaceful healing indoor and outdoor space, providing a clean and safe environment, assuring access to transportation to accompany a hospitalized loved one, assuring access to technology like home, and creating a sense of camaraderie, family, and normalcy. The Friends of Fisher House Puget Sound supports four Fisher Houses in western Washington State. In addition to the Fisher House at Seattle, the Friends are also providing support to two Fisher Houses at Joint Base Lewis McChord and one located in Vancouver, Washington. These houses provide housing while the family’s loved one receives care through the VA Puget Sound Health Care System, Madigan Army Medical Center, VA Medical Center Portland or other area hospitals. On behalf of the Friends, staff, and the families of Fisher House, thank you again for your donation and support. Your partnership is a gift to these deserving families.

KISW 99.9 FM "The Mens Room" & Elysian Brewing Company
Since 2009, KISW 99.9 FM and Elysian Brewing Company have teamed up in support of Fisher House. Elysian crafts "The Mens Room Original Red" ale in honor of the popular weekday show. The original idea was to run the beer for a few months in the Elysian brewpubs. But the beer found a wide and appreciative audience and is now sold on tap in bars and restaurants all over Puget Sound as well as by bottles and six packs in area grocery stores. Since the project began over $650,000 has been raised to benefit Washington Fisher Houses. We gratefully acknowledge the rockin' support of KISW and Elysian Brewing Company.

Uli's Famous Sausage
It doesn't get much better than artisinal sausage, sustainably sourced, and hand-made with love. Unless, of course, you make that sausage with Men's Room Red. When Uli's Famous Sausage
partnered with the Men's Room to make this signature sausage they also joined the family of community support. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of this delicious bundle of goodness is donated to Washington Fisher Houses.

Bigfoot Stars
Bigfoot Stars is a local chapter of the Quilts of Valor® Foundation (QOVF). Our chapter was organized in June 2022 and is based in Auburn WA. In the past year, we have awarded several quilts to local Veterans and Service Members, and we are ready to award more quilts as nominations are received! Our chapter consists of about 20 volunteers who meet once a month to share deas, inspirations, and updates. We rely entirely on donations of money, fabric and services to make the quilts. If you would like to join us as a volunteer or donate to our chapter, please contact Michele Howe at micheledhowe@icloud.com.
Bigfoot Stars would like to thank Bigfoot Quilts in Auburn, WA, for their continued support of our chapter.

The QOVF is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization, founded in 2003 with the mission of covering Service Members and Veterans touched by war with comforting and healing quilts.
Each quilt is handmade of quality fabrics, and either machine or hand quilted. A typical quilt is usually the product of several people who collectively design, create, and finish a quilt to be awarded as a way of saying "thank you for your service and sacrifice in serving our nation.” If you you know of a Service Member or Living Veteran that has been touched by war and who might benefit from a quilt, please consider nominating them for a Quilt of Valor by visiting www.QOVF.org/nominations-awards. Nominees do not need to be local; QOVF is nationwide, and the nomination will be handled by a QOVF chapter near the nominee. |
