At Fischer & Frichtel, we are truly committed to improving the quality of life throughout the metropolitan area, so we devote considerable time, effort, and funding to worthy civic and charitable endeavors. Over the years, we have donated our time and organized fundraising efforts for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital, Habitat for Humanity, the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Boys Hope, Youth In Need, St. Joseph’s Institute for the Deaf, the Ronald McDonald House, the March of Dimes Missouri Chapter, Crisis Nursery, and Folds of Honor St. Louis.
For the fourth year in a row, Fischer & Frichtel Homes pledged to make a donation for every home sold from Memorial Day through the 4th of July to Folds of Honor-St. Louis Chapter, a wonderful organization which provides educational scholarships and support to the spouses and children of America’s fallen and disabled service members. This year’s donation was $25,000!
Fischer & Frichtel is a 5-star partner of St. Louis Chapter, which is the highest level of sponsorship. “We will forever be grateful to our service members who have sacrificed so much for our freedom,” said John Fischer, president of Fischer & Frichtel. “We proudly stand behind Folds of Honor to educate the legacy of these brave men and women. We thank our customers for their business which enables us to support this worthy cause.
The check handoff was featured on the July 10 edition of KSDK’s Show Me St. Louis with Mary Caltrider.
