Built to Honor helps vets with owning home
LED Lowcountry was one of many trade partners and organizations that recently helped make Built to Honor’s 50th home possible for U.S. Army Staff Sgt. Clark “Jey” Johnson and his family at Sea Grass Station in Bluffton.
Sponsored by PulteGroup, the Built to Honor program provides mortgage-free homes to deserving wounded veterans across the country.
Launched in 2013, PulteGroup operations across the nation have banded together to support this effort, having built 30 new homes worth upwards of $9 million for deserving wounded veterans.
“It was an honor to be part of this project,” said Joel Rudicil, president of LED Lowcountry. “We appreciate, respect and thank all of our veterans for their service to our country.”
