Working under the mission of “Spreading Hope and Supporting Communities One Home at a Time,” the new foundation will focus on four areas: providing HomeServe USA work for eligible homeowners who are not customers and face a home emergency they cannot handle financially, providing grants to nonprofits and municipalities for community-based projects, putting a new emphasis on hiring veterans who are transitioning into civilian life, and developing an employee-directed corporate charitable matching program and implementing measures to enable HomeServe employees to participate in volunteer efforts

“HomeServe is committed to putting people at the heart of everything we do, and that includes engaging in socially responsible activities,” said HomeServe CEO John Kitzie. “With the HomeServe Cares Foundation, we will support communities, improve the quality of life for residents and our employees, and assist veterans and vulnerable homeowners. HomeServe is completely committed to spreading hope and supporting communities, one home at a time.”
