WHY WE PLAY
When a veteran is hospitalized, families often travel hours to be there.
Hotels quickly become unaffordable, and many face the choice between staying close or going home.
Fisher House removes that decision.
The Golf Outing funds free lodging, meals, and support so families can remain together during treatment at the Milwaukee VA and helps build Wisconsin’s second Fisher House in Madison.
This outing supports how our community ensures no family has to choose between being present and being able to afford it.
WHY NOW
Veterans travel from across the region to receive specialty care in Madison.
Many families currently commute long distances or stay in hotels during treatment.
The Madison Fisher House will provide 5,840 additional nights of lodging each year, ensuring more families can stay at the bedside of their loved ones when it matters most.
Your participation helps support families today and the families who will need us tomorrow.
IMPACT
Because a family’s love is good medicine
Last year supporters like you made it possible for families to stay near hospitalized veterans:
• 20,506 nights of lodging provided
• $2.3M saved in out-of-pocket costs
• 7,533 caregivers supported
• Typical stay nearly a week during care
What Your Team Provides
Each team keeps a family near a hospitalized veteran, provides meals inside the home, and helps open Wisconsin’s second Fisher House.
More Than a Charity Scramble
The Fisher House Wisconsin outing brings together business leaders, veterans, and supporters for a relaxed but meaningful day on the course. Many teams return each year not just for the golf, but for the camaraderie and the connection to the families they help support.
You’ll spend a great day golfing while directly supporting military and veteran families in Wisconsin. Whether you bring coworkers, clients, or friends, your participation makes a real and visible difference.
The outing reaches capacity each year and is limited to 72 teams to keep play enjoyable.
