SOVC gives back to communities helping disabled and elderly veterans
Our commitment transcends mere shelter; we will empower veterans with practical skills through hands-on training in building and home repairs, specifically to go into surrounding communities to assist elderly and disabled veterans. The elderly & disabled veterans will receive essential home repairs at no cost, ensuring their living spaces are safe and accessible. Furthermore, our gardening programs will equip veterans with the knowledge to cultivate their own produce, fostering self-reliance and enabling them to give back to the communities by sharing their harvest.
