A Home Away from Home

Fisher House Wisconsin is a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization which helps to fund some of the expenses associated with operating the Milwaukee VA Fisher House, which provides free, temporary lodging to eligible loved ones and caregivers of military service members and veterans receiving VA approved, extended medical or emergency care. Fisher House Wisconsin works in collaboration with the VA and is a community partner aligned with the national Fisher House Foundation.

Fisher House Wisconsin is also actively working with the VA to help establish a Fisher House near the VA medical facility in Madison, Wisconsin.
