Dear Homes for Our Troops Supporters,

The Board of Directors today announced that, following seven years of
leading this great organization, John S. Gonsalves, our Founder and
President, will be stepping aside. Ken Preston, former Sergeant Major
of the Army (SMA), will now lead as President of Homes for Our Troops,
effective immediately.

"This leadership change is one the Board of Directors sees as a
positive move as the organization looks forward to advancing its 100
More...Homes for Our Troops campaign," said General Richard
A. Cody (Ret.), Chairman of the Board of Directors for Homes for Our
Troops. "We are very proud of the 108 homes that Homes for Our
Troops has delivered to our severely injured veterans under the
vision, guidance, and leadership of John Gonsalves. We remain
committed to restoring freedom and independence to our service members
who have suffered life-altering injuries as a result of fighting for
our security."

"We could not have achieved this important milestone if not for
the many citizen donors who have made building each home possible. We
appreciate your continued support as we fully set our plans to build
100 More...Homes for Our Troops."

"We thank John Gonsalves for his years of selfless service to
Homes for Our Troops and wish him well. We welcome Ken Preston as our
new President. We are confident he is the right leader at the right
time in the history of this organization to bring Homes for Our Troops
to new heights of service to our brave men and women in
uniform."
