Operation Homefront and Meritage Homes celebrated Military Appreciation Month last month, with a groundbreaking ceremony for a new home being built for a deserving military family.
During the ceremony, four military veterans on Meritage Homes’ staff, participated in the festivities.
The new, mortgage-free and energy-efficient home that will be presented to a deserving family on Veterans Day.
Meritage Homes hosted the event, which included remarks by Steve Harding, regional president for Meritage’s Florida division, according to a news release.
The event took place in Bristol Meadows, on Asher Moon Lane, in Zephyrhills.
Meritage Homes, the sixth-largest U.S. homebuilder, has again renewed its partnership with Operation Homefront, to place a deserving military family into a brand new, mortgage-free and energy-efficient Meritage home.
This is the eighth year Meritage Homes has built and donated a new home to Operation Homefront through the Permanent Homes for Veterans program.
Operation Homefront will select the recipient for the new home and keys will be awarded the week of Veterans Day 2021.
The Permanent Homes for Veterans program, formerly known as Homes on the Homefront, has placed more than 700 military families in mortgage-free homes and deeded over $90 million in home equity since 2012.
