Surprised in February with the news that he was selected to receive a new home, Sergeant Edwards and his wife Annabel saw their home for the first time during a special dedication ceremony this month. The three-level, three-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom townhome was fully furnished and designed specifically for the Edwards family.

“It is an honor for our Pulte team, along with the support of Elm Street Communities, Operation Homefront, and our trade partners and suppliers, to build this home for Sergeant Edwards as a thank you for his service to our country,” said Jarod Blaney, president of PulteGroup’s Mid-Atlantic Division. “We hope this home will be a source of joy, comfort, and a place to create wonderful memories for him and his family.”

This is the second Built to Honor home dedicated in the greater Washington D.C. area. The home was awarded in partnership with Operation Homefront and with the support of Elm Street Communities.

“Thanks to our tremendous partnership with PulteGroup and their Built to Honor program, the Edwards family has received more than just a roof over their heads; they now have a home to establish their roots, build memories and plan for a brighter future,” said Margi Kirst, Chief Development Officer, Operation Homefront. “As a result of PulteGroup’s support, Operation Homefront is making a life-changing impact for military families and providing the stability they need to start strong and stay strong in their communities, which in turn builds a stronger America.”
