BUILDING INDUSTRY COMMUNITY SPIRIT AWARD
Operation Coming Home
Raleigh, NC

Operation Coming Home provides new custom Hero Home for troops that were injured in combat operations. This year we proudly present
Homes 11, 12 & 14 built for injured Soldiers and Marines. Each Hero Home was built by a different builder, volunteer group and vendors. Each of
our wonderful vendors donate 100% of their labor and materials. Every Hero Home has a ground breaking, specialty rooms, community service
projects and a Hero Home Finale with Key presentation. Each time we start a new Hero Home we gather new vendors to participate, new
media outlets to cover the event, work with the military medical board and Veterans Affairs, town councils, to waive fees and permits, and rally
new volunteers. We are very blessed to be surrounded by many military installations, a large veteran population and gracious patriotic business
owners. We have truly learned WHAT A FEW CAN DO!
