INTRODUCING THE VETERANS VILLAGE
You Can Change the Life of a Veteran
The resources available to our nation’s veterans after serving our country are paltry at best. Many veterans are left behind and struggle to find employment, mental and physical health resources, and housing. These struggles have led to a large vulnerable population of our national heroes.
You can help our struggling heroes find affordable, safe, and resilient housing now. Let’s give our veterans the respect and dignity they deserve.
How do we address this issue? Sustainable, safe, respectful, quality, affordable housing.
In Philadelphia, we see firsthand that affordable housing is scarce.
Units available to Veterans with vouchers and subsidies are often in grave disrepair, may not even include kitchen appliances, and often have unsafe or unhealthy living conditions. This is unacceptable and it needs to end now.
Veterans Village is a 47-unit new construction, permanent housing community for Veterans. Veterans Village is the first project spearheaded by Veterans Villages, a registered 501c3 organization, dedicated to addressing the need for Affordable Housing.
The Joan & Bernard Spain Family Foundation has donated the seed equity necessary to bring this project to fruition. Veterans Villages is soliciting vendors, suppliers, and individuals to defray the costs of construction. Veterans Village is located in a Federal Opportunity Zone which offers additional tax benefits to donors and investors.
