Stroller Warriors® chapters doubled down on community outreach initiatives during September by supporting the Fisher House Foundation® through the quarterly Stroller Warriors Global community outreach campaign.
The Fisher House Foundation gives military and veteran families a comfortable home while their loved ones are in the hospital. Since 1990, the Fisher House Foundation served more than 430,000 families by offering over 11.5 million nights of lodging, supplied 70,000 airline tickets, and awarded over $27,000,000 in scholarships to over 15,000 students.
Stroller Warriors encouraged chapters and members to host and dedicate miles in honor of the Fisher House, organize a collection of much needed supplies and gift cards, or to select Fisher House as the charity of choice in Amazon Smile.
