Home Repair Project for Veterans
06.01.2024
Habitat is continuing to offer a new Home Repair Program meant to serve qualifying military personnel in Manitowoc County as they so generously served us. Our inaugural Vet Home Repair helped a local US Army veteran with a total roof repair. Hooah!
​
The Home Repair for Veterans Program focuses on high-impact, volunteer-friendly external construction projects that allow low-income homeowners to stay in their homes with improved comfort and safety. Projects might include fixing a porch, building a wheelchair ramp or repairing steps.
If you are or know of an existing veteran homeowner needing light external repairs, learn more here and complete an application today!
