Habitat for Heroes
About
Habitat for Heroes builds and repairs homes for local veterans. The program was born out of the collaboration of local veterans, veteran’s family members, local businesses, and veteran organizations. All of the supporters have the same goal in mind: to create safe, affordable housing opportunities for veterans. Providing opportunities for veterans in our community is our way of giving back to those who served.
Goals
- To provide safe, affordable housing for veterans and their families.
- To encourage interaction, skill development, and support for veterans through volunteerism.

our current project
Meet Natasha, Habitat homeowner. Natasha is a veteran and member of the Combat Veteran Motorcycle Association. Habitat recently completed a home for Natasha and her daughter in Tomah, WI.
The home was built with the support of many local veterans groups, Natasha's friends, family, and hundreds of volunteers. Thank you especially to local businesses, Leon Country Floors and First American Roofing, for donating material to this house.
