Veteran Build Project Helps Make Local Veteran's Home Accessible

Coplay, Pa. -- When members of the Veteran Build Project team met Bud, the veteran they wanted to honor in 2019, they were struck not only by the depth of his continuous service, but also by the opportunity they had to help someone who had given so much. But Bud’s home needed more than the project team had completed in the past – and they needed professional guidance and assistance.

After months of planning and fundraising, and with the help of TruBlue Total House Care of Easton and more than 20 volunteers, the 2019 Veteran Build Project was completed on August 3. The team made significant repairs on Bud’s home, including bathroom and flooring repairs, widening doorways and hallways to make room for a wheelchair, and making handicap-accessible upgrades.
