Lee Greenwood Helps Build Homes for Wounded War Veterans

Lee Greenwood

Country music icon Lee Greenwood is helping build homes for wounded war veterans. Greenwood, in partnership with Helping a Hero, hopes to provide a custom-built home for a wounded warrior in north Alabama as part of the All-Star Salute to Lee Greenwood event. Helping a Hero has launched the "Nominate a Hero" program where the community can nominate a wounded veteran for consideration to be selected as a home recipient. Nomination forms can be found on Helping a Hero's website at helpingahero.org

"Helping a Hero has helped provide over 100 homes for veterans and I have served as an ambassador for them for over a decade. The work they do is tremendous, especially when you get to hand those keys to a wounded veteran. The reactions are priceless," said Greenwood. "I know that I am being honored on October 12th and it's very appreciated, however, after I met Louis and Patti, I knew this was a wonderful opportunity to team together and make a difference. I am honored to share the stage on October 12th to honor a special veteran." 

"Helping a Hero is excited to partner with Breland Homes to build a specially adapted home for a wounded hero in Alabama," said Meredith Iler, Helping a Hero's chairman emeritus and founder of its home program. "We are counting on Alabamians to help us locate a brave and deserving wounded veteran who was injured while serving the country and needs an adapted home. Our veterans have sacrificed so much for our freedom, and this is a way to say 'thank you for your service.'" 

These homes are built by Breland Homes. "When Patti and I met Lee Greenwood and learned about his partnership with Helping a Hero to build homes for our veterans we jumped at the chance to help," said Louis Breland. "Our nation's military and the heroes that fought for our country have a special place in our hearts and we are always looking for opportunities to honor and support them. I can't think of a better way to do this than to build a home for a wounded warrior in our community." 

Breland Homes is one of the top home builders in the southeast with a 46-year history of constructing quality homes in exceptional communities and is one of the most trusted names in the homebuilding industry. Breland's latest projects include two master-planned mixed-use communities, Clift Farms, and Town Madison. Clift Farms is located on Highway 72 across from Madison Hospital and Town Madison is on I-565 in Madison, which features Toyota Field - home of the new Trash Pandas minor league baseball team.
