Purple Heart Riders - WI Chapter

Our Purple Heart Riders surely support our amazing Fisher House Wisconsin and their mission. Supporting veterans by ensuring their families by staying at the amazing Fisher House 16 suite homes when veterans are having overnight short or long term health care.

As Purple Heart recipients, we all surely have had our VA hospital visits and some of those visits were long-term health care. To have our families next to us and taken care of amazingly like the Fisher House Foundation and our Fisher House Wisconsin does, we are so thankful for their support and dedication.

We are very excited for the new Fisher House that will be built to support the William S. Middleton Memorial Veterans Hospital soon and our PHR Riders will surely be there to support that grand opening

Yesterday, the Madison VA held a ceremony commemorating Nat Purple Heart Day and to induct 5 veterans into their new P-Heart Hall of Honor. Our very own Bill “Blue” Maves was inducted! Blue served as a Marine in Vietnam, and an additional 30 years of service in the Army/ARNG, and was WIA in Iraq almost 40 years after serving in ‘Nam. “You’re our boy Blue!”
