Carpet One Canada organized a community walk around Halifax's Citadel on June 5, raising funds for Homes for Heroes Foundation. Since 2019, the company has provided flooring materials for veteran housing villages across Canada, with upcoming projects in Winnipeg and London scheduled for summer 2026.

Since 2019, Carpet One Canada has supported Homes for Heroes by providing all flooring, tile, and installation supplies for the charity’s innovative village projects. These villages offer unhoused veterans a safe community environment with personalized services tailored to each resident’s unique needs and goals.

 Carpet One Canada’s involvement began with the second Homes for Heroes village in Edmonton, Alberta, and continued contributions to subsequent villages. Most recently, Carpet One Canada supported the Kingston, Ontario, village, which opened its doors in June 2024. The cooperative actively supports the upcoming Winnipeg and London villages, both scheduled to open in the summer of 2026.

“It was a pleasure spending time walking around the Citadel in Halifax. Having community partners like Carpet One support Homes for Heroes has a profound impact on our Veteran community,” said Brad Field, CEO of Homes for Heroes Foundation and recent walk participant. 

Carpet One Canada’s dedication extends beyond financial support. Members regularly host grassroots fundraising events, including the Walk for H4HF, Remnants for Remembrance, and Carpet One Coffee for H4HF, rallying local communities to support veterans in need.

“We’re proud to see our Canadian Carpet One members continue to support the Homes for Heroes Foundation,” said Cynthia Arsenault, director of retail brands (Canada). “From our walk in Halifax to their ongoing commitment to the upcoming veterans’ villages in Winnipeg and London, their dedication truly makes a difference.”
