Our Mission
"Our mission is to honor and support veterans by providing safe and affordable housing solutions. By partnering with trusted, experienced service providers, we combine high-quality housing with the professional care and support veterans need to succeed. We believe every veteran deserves not only a dignified place to call home, but the opportunity to rebuild, grow, and thrive in their community.”
HONORING OUR HEROES THROUGH AFFORDABLE HOUSING solutions
Building Stability & dignity
The Martin Escalante Foundation offers Emergency, Transitional, and Permanent Housing Solutions tailored to veterans facing homelessness, housing instability, or major life changes after military service. Our homes align with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) housing initiatives such as HUD-VASH, SSVF, and GPD, ensuring that eligible veterans can access the full range of supportive services and rental assistance available to them. By working closely with VA case managers and community partners, we help veterans, and their families secure stable housing while addressing underlying needs such as mental health, employment, and reintegration support. Our goal is to not only house veterans—but to empower them to rebuild their lives with dignity, security, and long-term independence.
JOIN US TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE EVERY DAY
Your support ensures that no veteran is left behind—because housing isn’t just a roof, it’s a first step toward reconnecting with family, accessing VA benefits, finding employment, and regaining dignity and independence. When you donate, you’re not just giving to a cause—you’re standing up for those who stood for us.
While federal programs like HUD-VASH provide essential housing support, they don’t cover the full cost of transforming lives. That’s where your donations help fill the critical gaps. Government funds rarely cover the full cost of home repairs, accessibility upgrades, or code compliance. Your support helps us make properties safe, livable, and inspection approved.
Many veterans need housing before their benefits or vouchers are approved. All donations are tax deductible, and your contribution allows us to say yes in the moment that matters most.
