Mission

HelpingaHero.org is a 501(c)(3) non profit, non partisan organization providing support for military personnel severely injured in the War on Terror.  Our principal activity is to provide specially adapted homes for qualified servicemembers as well as engaging the community to provide services and resources for our wounded heroes and their families.

About

The Wounded Hero Home Program is the signature program for severely wounded warriors injured while supporting the Global War on Terror. Traditionally, homes are built in master-planned communities with the developer and builder donating time and materials toward the construction of the house, in addition to their paid services. Helping a Hero.org donates cash funds and oversees the project.The veteran is required to take out a minimum $50,000 mortgage on the home plus contribute the proceeds of their VA specially adapted housing grant for which most of the veterans selected for this program are eligible.
