As our nation celebrates its 250th anniversary, we are reminded that America’s story is one of resilience, innovation, and an enduring commitment to the ideals of freedom and opportunity. Those same values live on today, especially in the Servicemembers who defend our nation and protect those freedoms.

As America marks 250 years, organizations like Homes For Our Troops serve as powerful reminders that supporting our Veterans is not just an act of gratitude or charity—it’s our opportunity to honor service through action.

Homes For Our Troops (HFOT) is a publicly funded 501(c) (3) nonprofit organization that builds and donates specially adapted custom homes nationwide for severely injured post-9/11 Veterans, to enable them to rebuild their lives. Most of these Veterans have sustained injuries including multiple limb amputations, partial or full paralysis, blindness, severe burns, and/or severe traumatic brain injury (TBI).

The gift of a specially adapted custom home restores safety and independence, enabling each Veteran to move forward, accomplish remarkable things, and build a meaningful post-service life and lasting legacy.

Since 2004, HFOT has built and donated over 440 homes in 46 states, while nearly 90 cents out of every dollar spent has gone directly to program services for Veterans.

To continue making this impact, from July 1 through July 14, join Homes For Our Troops in a special fundraising effort to support our important mission. Together, we are working toward a goal of raising $1 million in just 14 days to advance our mission of Building Homes and Rebuilding Lives for the brave men and women who served our country.

Thanks to a generous match of up to $275,000, every donation you make will go twice as far, courtesy of Bell Textron, Inc., Realtor.com, Shaw Industries, and dedicated mission supporters.

This is your opportunity to honor service through action, carry the legacy forward and give in support of those who sacrificed for our freedom.
