John and Dale returned to the United States as disabled veterans and became acutely aware of the lack of badly needed services vets needed to live normal, productive lives. So, they did something about it and started Purple Heart Homes, a non-profit organization that provides housing assistance for service-connected vets and have thus far completed over 750 projects across the nation.
