Supporting Our Military & Veteran Families

Bolton Construction and Service of WNC will be working to support our military & veteran families this year by donating to the Fisher House Foundation. In honor of Memorial Day this month Bolton WNC will be donating a portion of every service call to the Fisher House Foundation.

About

The Fisher House Foundation works to provide homes where military & veteran families can stay free of charge while a loved one is in the hospital. These homes are located at military and VA medical centers around the world. Fisher Houses have up to 21 suites, with private bedrooms & baths. Families share a common kitchen, laundry facilities, a dining room, & living room. This amazing program has saved military & veterans’ families an estimated $547 million in out-of-pocket costs for lodging and transportation

History

Zachary Fisher began working in the construction industry at the age of 16 to support his immigrant parents. Zachary & his two brothers formed Fisher Brothers & became premier developers in residential & commercial real estate.

Pauline Trost, the wife of the Chief of Naval Operations in 1986, had watched a family exit a helicopter with their luggage at the National Naval Medical Center & wondered where they would go. Knowing the high expenses of hotels in the area, she knew this would be a huge burden for families that were facing medical crisis.

Pauline mentioned what she had witnessed to her husband, who then told Zachary. Zachary & his wife, Elizabeth, dedicated more than $20 million to the construction of comfort homes for families of hospitalized military personnel to stay free of charge in support of their injured loved ones.
