FHFOH Donates new Tuff Shed storage facility to Fisher Houses of Houston – May 2018
We greatly appreciate the contributions of the three generous benefactors who combined to donate the foundation for the building constructed to augment the services of our Houston Fisher Houses. Allied Concrete donated the concrete, Noble Concrete Construction donated the labor, and Ready Cable, Inc. donated the rebar for this project.
This building will provide much-needed storage for supplies used by our guests. In addition, it will provide weather protection and thus longer service lives for the electric vehicles used to shuttle our guests around the Michael E. DeBakey VA campus.
