How can I include Welcome Home in my will or estate plan?

Create a legacy that honors service and provides hope for future generations of veterans.

Leave a Legacy. Change a Life.

Your legacy can help end veteran homelessness. By including Welcome Home in your estate plans, you ensure that your values live on—providing shelter, care, and opportunity to those who served. Estate gifts cost nothing today but create lasting change for generations.

Why Consider a Legacy Gift?

  • Enduring Impact — Support life-changing services like housing, counseling, and case management.
  • Tax Benefits — Reduce potential estate taxes and preserve wealth for your loved ones.
  • Peace of Mind — Know that your values will continue to make a difference.
