About 250 for 250

Why 250 for 250

In 2026, America turns 250 years old. It's a milestone worth celebrating — and there's no better way to honor the country than by standing behind the families of the men and women who defend it.

So the idea is simple and easy to remember: 250 people, each giving $250. Family, friends, neighbors, and business associates coming together to turn a round-number birthday into real support for military families in their hardest moments.

You don't have to give $250 — any amount you can afford helps move the goal forward. The point is that small gifts, multiplied across a community, add up to something big.

Who Is Fisher House?

Every dollar raised supports the Fisher House Foundation, which builds comfort homes on the grounds of military and VA medical centers so families have a free place to stay while a loved one receives care. It has earned a four-star rating from Charity Navigator for over two decades.

250 for 250 is an independent grassroots effort and is not run by the Foundation. For the full story, programs, and house locations, visit their official site: fisherhouse.org →
