Emerald Coast Military Affairs Council loves our mission and invited us to share our message. Our friend and great supporter Chris Curtis joined us.
Commemorative donations made in memory or to honor a loved one are a great way to pay it forward. Here’s a dad receiving the note acknowledging the gift made to US from his daughter. She was honoring her dad, uncle and grandfather. Her dad got a cool mug, a warm stadium blankie and confirmation he had raised her right.
In Memory of Cliff Long
One of Northwest Florida's most renowned business and civic leaders, Clifford Henry "Cliff' Long, went to his heavenly home on October 24, 2019 at the age of 93. Cliff loved our military and we were proud to call him our friend. Read more here.

Words from our Guests
"I've spent the last week here at Fisher House in support of my son, who had an emergency surgery. Flying from California to Florida was a task all on its own but getting here and not having to worry about a play to stay, food and laundry has been the biggest blessing. Thank you to all who have made Fisher House what it is and the mission they support happen. I have felt love and support from the staff and other guests since arriving. Thank you Fisher House."

"Words can't express how much my family and I thank you for accommodating us on such short notice. My husband was hurt during Ranger training and the hospital made reservations for us to stay here. The facility was very nice and clean. Also having access to the kitchen supplies and food was very helpful and inexpensive. We truly thank you for everything."

"Thank you so much for giving my family and I such an amazing place to stay. My brother, Staff Sergeant Cole Condiff was killed in training and we were here for his memorial service. This place was amazing and we appreciate all the kindness we received while here." RIP Warrior and our continued prayers for ths young man's family
