Joann attended a 3 hour zoom presidential training session. One of the ideas she came away with was to contact United Way or Share to help identify a worthy cause that would benefit from donations from our club..
Deb Rost introduced our speaker Miles Brown, Fisher House Manager. For more than 30 years, the Fisher House program has provided a home away form home for families of patients receiving medical care at major military and VA medical centers. These homes offer free, temporary lodging to military and veteran families. Omaha's Fisher House opened 3 years ago. It was built by Fisher House Foundation and gifted to the VA. They have 16 fully furnished suites. Meals are not provided but the kitchen is kept well supplied for the guests to make their own meals. The guest must live at least 50 miles away from the facility. They must also be fully independent. It is not a care facility. Thank you Deb for arranging for a very enlightening speaker.
They do accept donations of individually wrapped snack cakes, cookies, chips , peanut butter and crackers etc. This is something our club members can bring to our meeting and Dave and I would be happy to drop them off at Fisher House. You can find their Wish List by searching the Internet for Fisher House Omaha Wish List.
