Organizations to work together providing
mortgage-free homes to deserving military families
PulteGroup, Inc. (NYSE: PHM) announced today a partnership with
Operation Homefront, a national nonprofit organization whose
mission is to build strong, stable, and secure military families.
Together, Pulte and Operation Homefront will provide mortgage-free
homes to the families of deserving veterans and families
transitioning from military to civilian life.
Through the company’s Built to Honor™ program, which was
launched in 2013, PulteGroup has already delivered 50 new,
mortgage-free homes to veterans across the country. Now, in
partnership with Operation Homefront’s “Homes on the Homefront”
initiative, PulteGroup is working to expand the program even
further.
“Our new partnership with Operation Homefront is a direct result
of our shared mission to support our veterans who have valiantly
served our country,” said Ryan Marshall, president and CEO of
PulteGroup. “It is only through our relationship with Operation
Homefront and other veterans’ organizations, along with the
generous support of our suppliers and trade partners, that we can
make these homes a reality for deserving families. We hope that in
some small way we’re making a difference for these families as they
transition back to civilian life.”
PulteGroup and Operation Homefront have already kicked-off their
partnership in the “Homes on the Homefront” initiative by recently
gifting a Built to Honor home to a deserving family in St. Cloud,
Florida.
“We are honored to have the opportunity to work with PulteGroup
to make the dream of home ownership a reality for military
families,” said Brig. Gen. (ret.) John I. Pray Jr., President and
CEO of Operation Homefront. “PulteGroup clearly understands how a
strong, stable and secure home provides military families with the
solid foundation they need to do more than simply struggle to get
by, but actually thrive in the civilian communities they have
worked so hard to protect.”
PulteGroup will also join forces with Operation Homefront on its
new pilot program, “Transitional Homes for Community
Reintegration.” As participating veterans begin the process of
re-integrating into civilian life, they are able to live in a safe,
secure, single-family home for a period of two to three years,
while reducing debt, increasing savings and preparing for
independent and successful home ownership. As a part of this new
initiative, PulteGroup homes in Ruskin, Florida; Stephens City,
Virginia; and San Antonio, Texas will house participating families.
These homes will remain in Operation Homefront’s inventory for
15-20 years to serve an estimated 50-80 military families.
