Fisher House Foundation
Samsung is proud to establish a partnership with Fisher House Foundation, whose work in the backyards of our facility communities and all around the country help military families experience the comforts of home, while a loved one is receiving medical treatment.
Our $500,000 commitment over the next two years is comprised of corporate funding, product donation, and volunteerism, specifically in the capacities of:

Principal Construction Donor*

Samsung will outfit (4) new homes across the country, each receiving:
  • $100,000 combined donation of cash and products, including household appliances
  • Tablets with a curated suite of apps tailored to families’ needs in facilitating communication with loved ones, employers, medical care, financial institutions, and academic affiliates
  • Event support for Fisher House openings, including media outreach and engagement with local government officials for the ceremonies

Technology Partner
Samsung will update homes across the Fisher House network by donating household appliances, where needed, and tablets.

Employee Engagement
Samsung employees will have volunteer opportunities to work with Fisher Houses in Palo Alto, CA, Omaha, NE, Ft. Hood, TX, and Charleston, SC by:

  • Volunteering at specific Fisher Houses for biannual Samsung National Days of Service, or fulfilling a House Wish List on Amazon Smile
  • Donating airline miles and hotel points to Fisher House Foundation’s Hero Miles and Hotels for Heroes programs
  • Participating in annual Giving Tuesday events

Scholarship Fund for Military Spouses
In addition to its partnership with Fisher House Foundation, Samsung will donate $100,000 throughout 2015 and 2016 to the National Military Family Association Military Spouse Scholarship Fund. These scholarships will support the New Jersey-based spouses of military service members who are pursuing their higher education goals, specifically in STEM-focused academic programs.
