JOIN US AS WE WELCOME HEROES HOME
As part of the commitment to provide support for local veterans and their families, Galveston County Judge Mark Henry will honor veterans participating in the Salute to Veterans Program with a Welcome Home Ceremony on Veterans Day. The program was implemented to rebuild veterans’ homes damaged by Hurricane Ike. The Galveston County Housing Assistance Program in partnership with Sullivan Land Services (SLS,) DSW Homes and Tegrity Homes, will be able to provide more than 25 veterans with newly rebuilt homes throughout the county.
This pilot program is one-of-a-kind, as Galveston County is the first county in the state to work with the Texas General Land Office to facilitate recovery funds exclusively for veterans. The Welcome Home Ceremony on Veterans Day will provide the community with an inside look at the program as veterans are welcomed into their brand new homes. Media will be invited to share the extraordinary stories of these well-deserved veterans.
We hope you can join us on Veterans Day, Wednesday, November 11th to celebrate this program. The ceremony will be held at 2328 27th Ave N. Texas City, Texas 77590 at 10 a.m.
