Habitat for Heroes

Supporting Those Who Have Served

At Knoxville Habitat for Humanity, we honor the sacrifices made by our veterans and believe every hero deserves a safe, stable, and affordable place to call home. Our Habitat for Heroes program is specifically designed to serve the housing needs of veterans and their families, offering the support and resources they need to build better lives.

As a proud Veteran Build affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International since 2017, we have been committed to addressing the unique housing challenges faced by veterans in our community.

How We Support Veterans

Affordable Homeownership

Our Habitat for Heroes program provides veterans with the opportunity to achieve homeownership. Through our affordable housing model, veterans can purchase homes with zero-interest mortgages, making the dream of owning a home a reality. We work closely with veterans throughout the process, offering financial education, budgeting assistance, and personalized support to ensure they are prepared for the responsibilities of homeownership.

Critical Home Repair

For veterans who already own homes but need assistance with essential repairs, our program offers critical home repair services. These repairs ensure that veterans can live safely and comfortably in their homes, addressing issues such as accessibility modifications, roof repairs, and other vital improvements.

How Veterans Can Get Involved

Volunteer Opportunities

Veterans are encouraged to join us in any volunteer opportunities, not just Veterans Build events. Whether you want to build homes, assist in our ReStore, or help with special events, your involvement is a valuable contribution to our mission.

Employment Opportunities

At Knoxville Habitat for Humanity, we value the skills and experiences that veterans bring to the workforce. We are proud to offer employment opportunities that allow veterans to continue serving their community in meaningful ways.
