Perry Homes Foundation Honors Veterans and Military Families in Partnership with ManeGait and Fisher House Foundation
HOUSTON, Nov. 2026 — In recognition of Veterans Day, Perry Homes has reaffirmed its support for military service members, veterans and their families through dedicated partnerships with ManeGait and the Fisher House Foundation.
Since 1919, the nation takes time each November 11 to honor all military veterans who served in the United States Armed Forces. Recognizing that service often comes with sacrifice and long-term challenges, Perry Homes partners with leading organizations committed to helping veterans navigate their physical and emotional recovery journeys.
ManeGait, a North Texas nonprofit, focuses on Equine-Assisted Therapy, which is proven to reduce anxiety and depression, regulate sleep patterns, build confidence. and foster meaningful connection. Through this collaboration, Perry Homes financially assists therapeutic programs designed specifically for military veterans and first responders. The company’s commitment also extends to ManeGait’s signature community events, serving as a key sponsor for both the annual Gala at the Gait, which was held in October with proceeds doubling rider capacity, and the 2026 Rider Cup, with all proceeds funding its adaptive riding and therapy programs. With the help of 1,200 volunteers, 150 children, adults and veterans receive therapy each week. More than 400 people are on the organization's waitlist, reflecting the ongoing need for support.
Perry Homes has also extended its long-standing collaboration with the Fisher House Foundation, which provides comfort, housing and assistance to more than 1,400 military and veteran families every day during medical treatment and recovery. To date, the Fisher House Foundation has built 14 homes throughout Perry Homes’ primary markets in Texas and Florida. Perry Homes' ongoing support directly underwrites lodging costs, ensuring a safe environment where families can stay together during treatment without financial strain.
"It takes more than one nonprofit, one supporter and one dollar to uplift military veterans and their families–this Veterans Day and every day," said Kathy Britton, Owner and Executive Chair of Perry Homes. “Perry Homes is deeply grateful to our nation’s heroes for their sacrifices and service to our country. We will always feel a strong sense of duty to stand behind them, ensuring that they and their families have the resources and care they need."
Since its founding by Bob Perry in 1967, Perry Homes has remained dedicated to strengthening neighborhoods and supporting local communities. Perry Homes has contributed millions of dollars to non-profit organizations across Texas and Florida markets to assist their neighbors and build stronger community connections.
