Fisher House San Diego

We had the opportunity to support the Littoral Combat Squadron ONE Command Resiliency Fair to support 4,000 Sailors across the LCS community. The event provided comprehensive information on services, programs and activities directly supporting their mission to foster mental, physical, spiritual, emotional and special resilience among their force. It was our honor to support fostering espirit de corps throughout Commander, LCS Squadron ONE.

We've been ducked! Annually in May, the Navy Gold Star Program strives to honor and remember our nation's fallen Active Duty service members. By taking a photo of our Gold Star duck, we strive to remind surviving families members of our Nation's efforts to NEVER FORGET.

The Navy Gold Star Program provides support and resources to the family members of our nation's fallen service members, no matter the branch or cause of death. To learn more visit: www.navygoldstar.com

Honor. Remember. Respect.

The gift of food provides essential comfort, a tangible taste of home, and a brief reprieve from high-stress environments for the military families that stay with us. Thank you Coronado Rotary Club for restocking our homes with grab-and-go, heat-and-eat meal and snack options.

We are grateful for the path that led the San Diego Pathfinders Lions Club to Fisher House San Diego! The Club generously donated $500 to provide the comforts of home for the military families that stay with us.

The Knights of Columbus Ferdinand Magellan Assembly #2063 is a patriotic assembly focused on honoring veterans, and supporting the military. A generous $300 donation was made to support the military families in honor of Memorial Day.

This Memorial Day, we pause not only to remember our fallen heroes, but also the families who carry their legacy forward every day. Behind every name remembered is a family forever changed by service and sacrifice.

We are honored to stand beside military and veteran families during life’s most difficult moments, providing comfort, connection, and support when it matters most.

We remember. We honor.

Special thanks are in order to our sweet friends Tim & Joanne for donating pastries to fill our snack baskets. This community-level support boosts morale by letting Fisher House San Diego families know their service is appreciation.

Fisher House San Diego is a vital part of the Naval Medical Center San Diego support community for military families. Our support was highlighted, during this month of Military Appreciation, at the NMCSD Nurse Orientation, Command Indoctrination, Health and Wellness Resource Fair and the MWR Military Spouse Appreciation 5K.

The power of connection was at the forefront of the 2nd Annual Navy Region Southwest (California,Nevada,New Mexico,Arizona,Colorado,Utah) Mental Health Awareness Event hosted by Navy Wounded Warrior. The resource fair raised awareness, provided meaningful resources, and shared opportunities of community support for service members and their families. Attendees learned how Fisher House San Diego and Fisher House Camp Pendleton keep military families connected through our mental health initiative.

Naval Medical Center San Diego Logistics Specialist 2nd Class Jarren Combs reflects on MEDLOG receiving the volunteer of the year award...

“You never know when you or someone you care about may need the support Fisher House provides. Being able to contribute to families during challenging times is incredibly rewarding, and it gives us a sense of purpose beyond our individual responsibilities. As a team, we believe this mission is bigger than ourselves, and we take pride in knowing our efforts can positively impact the lives of others."
