The Pillars of Freedom Grant was awarded to Housing on Merit on the deck of the USS Midway in San Diego on November 8.
Housing on Merit is dedicated to reducing the number of women veterans experiencing homelessness. As a result of our efforts, the USS Midway Foundation awarded HOM with the Pillars of Freedom Grant during a ceremony held on the deck of the USS Midway in San Diego on November 8. The USS Midway Foundation was developed to model the mission of the USS Midway Museum and assist service organizations supporting current military, veterans and first responders. The Pillars of Freedom Grant will be used to help fund HOM’s Awards of Merit for Housing Assistance program, which provides funds to women veterans facing homelessness in order to remove barriers to permanent housing.
