The Five Pillars of Veterans Build

• Build

• Educate

• Mobilize

• Employ

• Honor

Build

Through new construction, rehabs, repairs and barrier free renovations, we provide simple, decent, affordable housing and homeownership opportunities for military service members, veterans,  and surviving spouses.

Educate

Provide veterans with access to financial education programs that support sustainable homeownership and promote a better understanding of military/veteran culture among Habitat's civilian supporters.

Mobilize

Engage service members, veterans, their families, families of the fallen and Habitat's civilian supporters to serve and honor veterans together in volunteer opportunities and veteran focused advocacy both domestically and abroad.

Employ

Leverage the skills and experience of veterans for employment, internship, fellowship, apprenticeship and national service opportunities within Habitat and enable similar opportunities with partner organizations.

Honor

Identify opportunities to honor service members, veterans, and surviving spouses. 

​
