Serving those who have served

Every U.S. veteran deserves a decent and affordable place to live, but not every veteran has access to affordable housing. According to the National Low Income Housing Coalition Veteran Report, more than 1.5 million U.S. veteran households pay more than 50% of their income on housing, leaving them severely cost-burdened. Through our Veterans Build initiative, you can help Habitat partner with U.S. veterans to achieve their dream of homeownership.
