 850 Radio Stations Participated in the Second Annual “Operation Fisher House” Washington, D.C. (Nov. 16, 2011) –

Fisher House Foundation, which constructs comfort homes to provide free, temporary housing to the families of service members receiving medical care at VA and military hospitals around the world, will receive a record $700,000 from Operation Fisher House, a nationwide week-long campaign that culminated in a radio fundraiser on Veterans Day, November 11, sponsored by long-standing partner Clear Channel Radio, one of the leading media companies in America.

Beginning on Monday, Nov. 7 and running through Nov. 11, 2011, all 850 Clear Channel stations promoted the second annual Operation Fisher House and encouraged listeners to tune in to the main fundraising event on Veterans Day. Clear Channel encouraged donations via online and text message to the Fisher House Foundation through live discussions, on-air mentions, interviews and a series of public service announcements.

“We’re grateful for Clear Channel’s support of our military families again this year,” said Ken Fisher, Chairman of Fisher House Foundation. “Clear Channel’s remarkable reach and continued support is an amazing force for our military families that will continue to help veterans and their families across the United States.”
