Our mission is:

Bringing volunteers and communities together to improve the homes and lives of low-income homeowners.

We have a focus on those who are elderly, disabled or families with children, especially those living in poverty or very low-income. Our goal is to make a sustainable impact in a community via partnerships with organizations, municipalities and local civic associations.

Our fundamental objective is to preserve low-income home ownership by restoring safe and sanitary living conditions. Our home improvement projects are customized, based on the needs of the family and condition of the house. We select meaningful home improvements that are significant, immediate and long lasting.

Heroes at Home



Heroes at Home is a program Sears Holding has created in partnership with Rebuilding Together in response to an urgent need to assist military families facing hardship. Rebuilding Together, the nation’s largest volunteer-based home rehabilitation organization is committed to bringing comfort, safety and accessibility to homeowners who do not have the financial or physical resources to complete home repairs and other necessary improvements.

By providing necessary repairs or modifications to homes and non-profit facilities, Sears Holdings strives to improve the lives of military families across America. Heroes at Home is one of the many initiatives through which Sears Holdings acknowledges the sacrifice made by our troops every day in the line of duty, while supporting and honoring those heroes who remain at home.

As a part of this program and using a grant from Heroes at Home, the VFW Post 1966 in Ft. Lauderdale has been selected to participate in this program. The focus of the urgent facility improvements is that of safety, comfort and functionality of the outdoor gathering area. This will allow for better support of veterans and their families as they gather together.
