About Veterans Build and the 2026 Event
The organizer's Veterans Build page lists Friday, November 6, 2026, in Boynton Beach, presented by Vertical Bridge. It describes this as the ninth year of that presenting sponsorship. These are the organizer's current event details, not a report of completed 2026 work.
Habitat's 2026 campaign listing shows an 8am to 2pm event window. It describes projects benefiting local veteran households, followed by the American Dream BBQ, and says proceeds support Habitat's Repair Program. Check the listing for instructions and any schedule changes before attending.
Historical context: Habitat's November 21, 2024 post-event release identifies Vertical Bridge as the 2024 presenting sponsor in its seventh consecutive year of support. That earlier event took place November 1, 2024, and its American Dream BBQ was held at the Boynton Beach Arts & Cultural Center.
2024 Event Leadership: Archived Record
Habitat's 2024 post-event release names these co-chairs for that year's event:
- Clint Lowe: Identified in the release as a U.S. Army veteran and a Carrier engineering leader.
- Michael Maglio: Identified in the release as a U.S. Marine veteran and a NuStar Building Materials sales leader.
The archived 2024 campaign names Anne Desormier-Cartwright and Ryan Paton as honorary co-chairs. Its committee list includes Brandon Albers, Nicholas Cannon, Carey Clarke, Andrew Filauro, Amy Kemp, Donna Kerner, Debbie Meyers, Anthony Nastase, Jonathan Oakley, Anta Plowden, Jon Raybuck, Art Roffey, Ivan Rosa and Melissa Royal.
Those names and roles describe the 2024 event record. Use the current Veterans Build page for the present event team rather than assuming the archived leadership list still applies.
How to Get Involved
Start with Habitat's current campaign, choose the relevant role and confirm its requirements directly with the organizer.
- Sponsorship: The 2026 listing associates team construction spots with sponsorship and reserves work on the homes for sponsors.
- Event volunteering: The listing describes support tasks such as setup, registration and hospitality. These are different from an individual construction spot.
- Donations: Follow the organizer's current campaign for donation options and the stated use of funds.
- Questions before attending: Confirm registration, availability, meeting instructions and any role-specific requirements with Habitat.
The 2026 campaign says individual construction volunteer spots are not available. Do not assume a general volunteer interest form or a donation reserves a build position. Ask Habitat to confirm the arrangement that fits your intended participation.
Looking for help with a home repair?
Habitat's Home Repair Program page describes exterior cosmetic work and critical repairs for qualifying Palm Beach County homeowners. It states that the service is not for emergency repairs. Eligibility, intake availability, project scope and timing should be confirmed directly with Habitat; this article does not establish that a particular repair or applicant will be approved.
Applying for a housing or repair program is a separate process from volunteering at or supporting the event. Use the program's own instructions and contact channels. Wilder Real Estate Group does not administer Habitat applications or select beneficiaries.
