This is the House
The Fisher House Foundation built the Albuquerque Fisher House which opened in October 2019. The VA manages and operates the house. And, the Friends of New Mexico Fisher House, a local, volunteer-based group, helps support the house with fundraising, community engagement, outreach, and assistance to families staying at the house.
Turn the ABQ Fisher House upside down, and everything that falls out will get the attention of the Friends group to determine how we can assist, repair or replace it.

The Friends of New Mexico Fisher House

"Home Away from Home"
while a loved one is receiving medical care
in Albuquerque.
