About Us
Friends of Mid-Missouri Fisher House, Inc. was founded in June 2018 as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization to support and promote the construction and ongoing operations of the Fisher House which will open in late 2022 or early 2023 on the Truman Memorial Veteran' (VA) Hospital campus. We are group of engaged community members that are striving to provide a much needed haven for veterans and service members that travel long distances to receive care here in Columbia. |
As a local Friends organization, we work closely with the National Fisher House Foundation that oversees and ultimately funds the construction of Fisher Houses on VA Medical Center campuses and Military installations worldwide. Since 1992, the Fisher House Foundation has built 92 Houses both in the US and abroad. These Houses are a place of rest and calm during some of the most trying times of these families’ lives.

The Mid-Missouri Fisher House will be located on the campus of the Truman VA Hospital in Columbia, Missouri. It will be designed to accommodate up to sixteen (16) families at any one time. Our close location, just steps away from the hospital entrance will help make getting to appointments and treatments effortless.
