Lowe's recently announced a $2 million donation to help national nonprofit Building Homes for Heroes construct, modify, and gift up to 75 homes over the next two years for veterans, police officers, firefighters, and other emergency first responders and their families.
Throughout its three-year partnership with Building Homes for Heroes, Lowe's has donated more than $3.4 million to the nonprofit to help build and modify 112 homes to date, Building Homes for Heroes said in a recent press release.
"We couldn't be more excited and humbled to partner with such an amazing and patriotic company like Lowe's," said Andy Pujol, Founder and CEO of Building Homes for Heroes. "As one of our biggest national partners, Lowe's helped us reach our milestone 300th home last year. Thanks to this donation, we are looking forward to celebrating our 400th home in 2024. Nearly 100 homes for 100 heroes and their families in two years' time."
"It's a beautiful example of how corporations and nonprofit organizations can come together to make our communities and our country a better place in support of our nation's heroes," Pujol said.
