THANK YOU DONORS – ANDY CARSWELL BUILDING

Veterans’ House Canada wishes to thank the following individuals and organizations for their particularly generous financial support. Hundreds of generous individuals and organizations supported our fundraising campaign to build the first Veterans’ House: the Andy Carswell Building, Canso Campus in Ottawa. Without their support, it simply would not be possible.

Carswell Family

The Carswell Family have long been supporters of homeless veterans. A short three years after their initial site visit in 2016, the Carswells attended the cornerstone ceremony in 2019. Where Andy Carswell, for whom the home is named, laid the foundation for this and all Veterans’ Houses to come.
