Within walking distance of BAMC, Fisher House is filled with warm, caring people who help family members endure the stresses associated with a loved one’s serious medical condition. The Fisher House enables families to stay together, cook meals, do laundry, and relax in a “home-away-from-home” atmosphere. A variety of donated items are welcomed, e.g. food items, toiletries, snacks, and phone cards. Each month after BCRW’s General Meeting, these items are delivered.
