We are busy - busy making contacts with businesses, organizations and individuals to "get the word out" about the Mid-Missouri Fisher House.  Below are some of things we are doing!

November 7, 2022: Four special guests including Dave Coker, Fisher House Foundation President, visited the construction site of the Mid-Missouri Fisher House in Columbia this week. They also attended our board meeting. The project is on schedule for completion next spring, but you can still help us reach our Capital Fund Campaign goal with a donation.

September 5, 2022:  What an AMAZING day volunteering for the Heart of America Marathon here in Columbia Missouri! We, Friends of Mid-Missouri Fisher House, had our friends along and directed traffic, got the tents set up and manned our support stations. We "rooted" for the runners, providing encouragement as we watch them through to the finish. Finally we helped break down the tents and clean up. Thanks to all who have supported us in serving Veterans and their families.
