The Need
Prior military service, especially in combat, has been
shown to greatly affect the aging process.
While some veterans do well, many others experience chronic
illnesses from Agent Orange and other wartime exposures. The loss of a spouse,
retirement, or illness often sends these heroes in a downward spiral and the
military culture they know keeps them from asking for help. Everyday Hero’s
Bridge receives calls from hospitals, emergency rooms, social services,
churches, and other organizations asking us to help with an older veteran. We
assist many of them in their own homes, but some situations are just too severe
to help them where they are.
They Need A Village
A safe, clean home is a basic necessity, essential to a
human’s well-being. We have a responsibility to ensure every senior veteran has
safe and supportive housing. For our older heroes, trying to sustain big,
unmanageable houses can be what tips the scales from independence to
dependence.
Hero’s Bridge Village will be the first of its kind
community dedicated exclusively to aging veterans to lift our aging veterans
out of substandard living conditions and social isolation.
The Hero’s Bridge Village will radically change the lives
of these veterans as well as the culture of our community.
Our veterans of World War II, Korea, and Vietnam have
already given so much, the least we can do for them is provide affordable and
supportive housing.
Commemorative Bricks
Building a Village begins with one brick, upon which we
place another. Brick by brick a Village will begin to take shape. Before long,
doors will swing open and welcome our aging veterans; those in greatest need of
a safe and secure home.
Order your commemorative brick to honor the veteran in your
life. Your custom brick will be among a beautiful outdoor living space for
everyone to see the tribute to your hero or your organization's support of the
Village veteran community.
