Homes for our Troops

Homes For Our Troops (HFOT) is a national nonprofit organization founded in 2004 that builds and donates specially adapted, mortgage-free homes for severely injured post-9/11 veterans. Their mission is to restore independence and improve quality of life for veterans who have suffered life-altering injuries, such as amputations, paralysis, or traumatic brain injuries. Each home is custom-designed with over 40 major adaptations, including roll-in showers, widened doorways, roll-under sinks and stoves, automatic door openers, and full-home generators, to meet the specific needs of the veteran. HFOT builds these homes where the veteran chooses to live and provides ongoing support, such as peer mentoring and homeownership education, to ensure long-term stability and reintegration into family and community life. Since its founding, HFOT has delivered hundreds of homes across the United States, emphasizing dignity, independence, and a foundation for recovery. Nearly 90 cents of every dollar donated goes directly to program services, demonstrating the organization’s efficiency and commitment to serving veterans. Through its work, HFOT helps veterans regain freedom and confidence, enabling them to live full, empowered lives.
