Fisher House
The Enlisted Spouse's Club supports the Fort Campbell Fisher House by providing a home-cooked meal to the house's guests once a month.
Upcoming ESC meal:
Tuesday, March 9, 2010
The Fort Campbell Fisher House offers Soldiers and Families a “home” to reside in while getting treatment at BACH. With the 101st Airborne Division and other numerous units constantly on the go, our new Fisher House located on Ft. Campbell is always buzzing. Soldiers, their Families, small children and grandparents are all served. Families do not pay to stay at a Fisher House. For more information, got to: http://www.fisherhouse.org
The Fisher House™ program is a unique, private-public partnership that supports America's military in their time of need. The program recognizes the special sacrifices of our men and women in uniform and the hardships of military service by meeting a humanitarian need beyond that normally provided by the Departments of Defense and Veterans Affairs.
Because members of the military and their families are stationed worldwide and must often travel great distances for specialized medical care, Fisher House™ Foundation donates "comfort homes," built on the grounds of major military and VA medical centers. These homes enable family members to be close to a loved one at the most stressful times - during the hospitalization for an unexpected illness, disease, or injury.

"The Fisher House relies heavily on donations. Many donations have been given to the Fisher House to assist in quality of life issues for the families residing there. Recently CH2MHill, Fort Campbell water utility company, contributed $10,000. The Enlisted Spouses' Club continuously holds fundraising events as well.
"I have never seen such benevolence and support as I have here at Fort Campbell," Manager Vivian Wilson said. "It has made my job easier with other people willing to help." "

How Can You Help?
On the 2nd Tuesday of every month, ESC members deliver a home cooked meal to Fisher House guests.
If you are interested in cooking for one of these meals, please email us and let us know.
Your meal can be cooked on site in the Fisher House's fabulous kitchen or by dropping off pre-cooked dinners that can be heated by the residents at their leisure.
Due to limited staff, the Fisher House depends on volunteers and voluntary support to enhance daily operations and program expansion.
If you are interested in volunteering, please contact escftcky@yahoo.com
