We’d like to thank you in advance for your interest in becoming your local Veteran’s champion and restoring freedom and independence back to our severely injured Veterans. Please read the information below to learn about the ways HFOT works with members of the building/construction and materials community.

What is a Build Partner?

A Build Partner is a large scale, high quality home builder and a community leader who signs on to construct one of HFOT’s signature specially adapted homes for a deserving Veteran. In this role, you oversee every phase of the home-build project, while inspiring the building community to come together to deliver this “forever home” to a severely injured Veteran and his/her family.

As Build Partner you are:

  • General contractor for the project
  • In charge of permitting
  • HFOT’s “Boots on the Ground” which requires reaching out to your strongest suppliers, your best subcontractors, and enlisting them to donate their materials and labor

  • Show Your True Colors– Align yourself with a well-respected charity with a broad base of devoted, patriotic supporters in your community. Give back freedom and independence to those who have selflessly given to our country and have returned home with life-changing disabilities and injuries.
  • Promote Your Involvement– Be recognized as a community leader and as a company that gives back. Introduce your brand to a whole new audience of brand-loyal Homes for Our Troops supporters.

Benefits include:

  • High-visibility job site signage HFOT-driven community outreach campaigns
