Eagle Scout Builds Gazebo for Veterans

Eagle Scout Candidate Zachary Reiter came out to Homes For Heroes with some friends and volunteered to build a beautiful gazebo for our Veterans to enjoy! Homes For Heroes is truly a community-based project and it has brought out Rocklander’s volunteer spirit. Many local youth have devoted their time and hard work to make a beautiful home for our once homeless Veterans. Zachary’s gazebo will be treasured by our Veterans for many years to come.

Homes for Heroes is a nonprofit organization focused on providing affordable housing for homeless and disabled veterans.  The apartments reside on the former Camp Shanks, in Tappan, N.Y., from which over 1.3 million GI’s left to fight in Europe during WWII.  To help support the men and women who bravely and honorably served our nation, monetary donations can be donated to Homes For Heroes, Inc., One Blue Hill Plaza, P.O. Box 1648, Pearl River, NY 10965.  Please call Sarah Wade at 845-735-0515, if you have any further questions.
