WHY WE CREATED 30 DAYS FOR 30 VETS
In the U.S., many veterans face housing challenges, with an estimated 1.5 million veterans living in poverty and needing basic home repairs to ensure safe and adequate living conditions.
In response to these pressing needs, various organizations and community groups across the country have launched programs aimed at assisting veterans with home repairs and improvements. These initiatives not only address the physical safety and comfort of veterans' homes but also contribute to their overall well-being and dignity. By providing essential repairs and upgrades, these programs help veterans lead more stable and independent lives, demonstrating a collective commitment to honoring and supporting those who have sacrificed for their nation.
