The Fisher House Radio-Thon consisted of 96.9 listeners donating to the Fisher House by calling, texting, & logging on to 969bostontalks.com all day and gave to our wounded warriors and their families. All Funds raised from the 4th Annual Radio-thon benefitted the Fisher House which enables family members to be close to their loved ones during hospitalization and gives them a safe, comfortable, home-like environment, making it easier for them to participate in the care and recovery of their loved ones.
Michael Graham is heard on WTKK-FM (96.9 Boston Talks) from 3PM-7PM.
The Fisher House Foundation has asked that family members of hospitalized active-duty service members and eterans of operation enduing freedom and operation Iraqi Freedom (OEF/OIF) be given high priority for lodging at Fisher Houses. Fisher houses and Fisher House Foundation play a crucial role in helping veterans recover from the serious wounds they have suffered. Fisher Houses enable family members to be close to be their loved ones during hospitalization and give them a safe, comfortable, home-like environment, making it easier for them to participate in the care and recovery of their relatives.
