HOMES FOR VETERANS A NJ NON PROFIT CORPORATION

At Homes for Veterans, our mission is to honor the service and sacrifice of U.S. veterans by ensuring they have safe, accessible, and dignified places to call home. We provide no-cost home modifications for disabled and aging veterans across the country, focusing especially on those who are unable to obtain adequate government support. Many of the veterans we serve have fallen through the cracks of traditional systems. We believe no hero should struggle to enter their own home, climb stairs, or use a bathroom safely. That’s why we customize each project to meet the individual needs of the veteran and their family. Our modifications include: -Wheelchair ramps and lifts -Barrier-free bathrooms (roll-in showers, grab bars, accessible sinks and toilets) -Widened doorways and hallways -Accessible kitchens -Exterior and interior stair modifications -Leveling of dangerous walkways and entries Founded in 2011, Homes for Veterans was inspired by the heart and vision of Douglas DiPaola, a talented handyman who dedicated his life to helping veterans live with comfort and independence. After his passing, his daughter, Francesca DiPaola, stepped in to carry on his legacy and expand the organization’s reach nationwide. Every home we modify is a message to a veteran that they are seen, valued, and never forgotten. We rely on the generosity of donors, volunteers, corporate partners, and community members to continue this critical work. Together, we are building more than homes — we’re rebuilding lives.
