Nikki Sixx Makes a Visit To Veterans, Commits To Help Fundraise

Nikki Sixx visiting the Fisher House in San Antonio, Texas (November 16, 2011)

Mötley Crüe bassist Nikki Sixx visited San Antonio’s Brooke Army Medical Center last Wednesday, and left so inspired by what he saw, that he has pledged to raise money for the medical site.

According to Blabbermouth.net, while at the Brooke Army Medical Center campus at Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio, Texas, Sixx, along with his “Sixx Sense” radio co-host Kerri Kasem, visited with injured military men at the Fisher Houses and the Center For The Intrepid.

The trip touched him so much that he has vowed to use his radio show to raise money for the campus, which opened in 2007, saying, “Kerri and I left feeling inspired and motivated, and have set the wheels in motion to come back and help raise money through ‘Sixx Sense’ for Fisher House and Center For The Intrepid.”

The radio show “Sixx Sense” is syndicated by Premiere Networks, which is a subsidiary of Clear Channel Communications, which just recently raised over $700,000 for the Fisher House Foundation during a nationwide and weeklong campaign that lead to a radio fundraiser on Veteran’s Day of this year.

Good work Nikki! Just another reason we love the man!
