Operation Finally Home: Building Free Homes For Injured American Veterans Sign Biz(R) Network Accepts The Call

Alexander Reyes’ boyhood dream of a military career ended when he was hit by an improvised explosive device during a patrol two years ago in Baghdad. “Laying in that hospital bed… sometimes I felt I’d rather [have] died,” Reyes said. “My life came to a complete halt.”

Dan Wallrath of Houston, Texas, is helping veterans start a new life after they return from a war. Since 2005, Texas home builder Dan Wallrath has given injured Iraq and Afghanistan veterans homes of their own – mortgage free. He and his Operation Finally Home team have built nine new custom homes and currently have ten more planned or under construction. He’s created a program called “Operation Finally Home” to help injured veterans who have served in the Iraq or Afghanistan war to have a home free of cost, reports CNN.

Now, the international Sign Biz Network, an organization of more than 180 brick-and-mortar sign companies, is contributing to the effort. The chain is no stranger to causes, having supported the Miles of Hope missing children’s organization for years.
