Fisher House is a home away from home where our military families can stay while a loved one is<br />
receiving in house treatment at one of our medical centers. Any veteran or active military personnel,<br />
wartime or peacetime, is eligible to stay at the Fisher House. These homes are built on the grounds<br />
of major military and VA medical centers. The homes enable family members to be close to loved<br />
ones at the most stressful times. There is at least one Fisher House at every major military medical<br />
center to assist families in need and to ensure that they are provided with the comforts of home in a<br />
supportive environment. There is NO Charge for any military family to stay at a Fisher House.<br />
Fisher House Boston was the 46 th Fisher House to be built in the United States. They recognize not<br />
only the special sacrifices made by our men and women who serve in uniform, but also their loved<br />
ones. The <strong>Millis</strong> Lions and Leos are proud to support Fisher House Boston and hope to display<br />
1,000 flags in front of Town Hall to honor all Veterans. Please help support these men and women<br />
who have sacrificed so much by buying a flag(s) in honor of or in memory of, a Veteran.<br />
