Our Mission:
Our wounded warriors returning to their homes are faced with a
variety of accessibility problems. Homes 4 Heroes, a
charitable organization, donates a wide range of services at no charge
to allow our heroes to properly access and use their homes.
We are a group of citizens who saw an unacceptable situation and
needed to act. We saw our wounded soldiers rescued and wonderfully
nursed back from their injuries only to be sent home to houses that were
never meant to accommodate their disabilities.
We think they deserve
more. Hopefully you will find a way to join us in helping these heroes.
