Philanthropy

Our mission this year is to collect donation items in collaboration with Valor Home– a transitional housing facility that provides support to Summit County homeless veterans in their effort to achieve greater self-sufficiency and permanent housing.  

What is Valor Home? 

Valor Home is one of six transitional housing facilities managed by the Family and Community Services Inc. It offers 36 rooms for homeless veterans living in Summit County. Their mission is to help these individuals find & retain permanent housing during their stay. Valor Home strives to provide case management, access to community services, and Job Training/Outpatient Programs.  

Valor Home is located in Akron/Summit Count and is the sister organization to Freedom House
