Our Story
A Soldier’s Journey Home was founded in the wake of September 11, 2001, by a dedicated group of New York firefighters who sought to give back to the community that supported them during a time of crisis. Over the years, this initiative has evolved into a nationwide effort, uniting firefighters and veterans to build mortgage-free homes for veterans with disabilities. Each year, volunteers from across the country come together to construct a home in just two weeks, demonstrating unwavering commitment to honoring the sacrifices of our veterans.
