Program accomplishments

  • The Wounded Hero Home Program is the signature program for severly wounded warriors injured in the post 9-11 Global War on Terror. Traditionally, homes are built in master-planned communities with the developer and builder donating time and materials toward the construction of the house, with Helping a Hero.org donating cash towards the project. The veteran contributes 50,000 towards the home including their VA specially adapted housing grant for which most of the veterans selected for this program are eligible.
