Honoring our Fallen Hero’s, Wounded Warriors &

Military Families in need

In an effort to raise awareness about the Tripler Fisher House and how we can assist our Military Families during a medical

crisis or loss, we are partnering with each Military Branch, community partners and other non-profit organizations who support

our Men & Women in uniform. This is open to military and civilians. There will be different vendors and information booths to

highlight what is available to our military families on Oahu within each Service as well as the community. There will also be a

Memorial Tribute of combat boots to line the path for the participants so we are always reminded that someone has paved the

path in which we are about to travel. More information to follow in the coming weeks. For more information and up to date

events follow us at www.facebook.com/triplerfisherhouse

Please help us collect a pair of boots to represent each Service Member who has died since 9/11, you may add a picture to that

pair to honor that Service Member and put a face to their honor. POC is Theresa Johnson @ 561-7423 or

theresa.m.johnson2@us.army.mil . Proceeds from Run portion will support the Tripler Fisher House 100% to continue

providing support to our Military Families .
