Habitat for Humanity International and The Home Depot Foundation recently announced the expansion of the Repair Corps Program, a joint project to remodel and renovate homes for military veterans and their families.

The expanded initiative will help Habitat affiliates across the nation repair more than 180 homes. Training and technical assistance for the program is provided by Habitat.

The expansion received $2.7 million in funding from The Home Depot Foundation and volunteer assistance from the Home Depot's associate-led volunteer force.

Habitat for Humanity affiliates can receive up to $15,000 for each project to help veterans.
