This is the Eighth Home Donated in South Carolina Through PulteGroup’s Built to Honor® Program
CHARLESTON, S.C.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
In a special dedication ceremony, United StatesMarine Corps Staff Sergeant Jason Roberts and his wife were presented the keys to their new, mortgage-free Centex Home in Bradford Pointe, a new community in Summerville, South Carolina. The new 2,200 square-foot, four-bedroom, three-bathroom home was awarded through PulteGroup’s Built to Honor® program, which provides new homes to wounded veterans and their families across the country.
“It was an honor to build this home for Sergeant Roberts as a thank you for his service to our country,” said Matthew Raines, Division President of PulteGroup’s Coastal Carolinas Division. “Jason and Christina are high school sweethearts who spent their early years in nearby Goose Creek, South Carolina. The home will bring them close to family and friends and allow them to plant roots in the place they know and love.”
The Roberts family was first surprised with the news that they would receive the new home in August 2021, at a special groundbreaking ceremony at the homesite. During the build process, the community left inspirational words of support and encouragement inside the walls of the home, writing heartfelt messages on the studs during the Notes of Love event in November.
This is the eighth home dedicated in South Carolina through PulteGroup’s Built to Honor program. The home was dedicated in partnership with Military Warriors Support Foundation, a national non-profit organization committed to providing support for our nation’s combat-wounded veterans and Gold Star families as they transition out of the military and into civilian life.
