Today, 20-year Charlotte commercial paving company, RAM Pavement announced the completion of a project with Purple Heart Homes and 5th Street Ministries, providing transitional housing for service-related disabled veterans. RAM Pavement donated the labor to provide ADA accessibility, including the concrete pads, parking, sidewalks and curbing for this new, tiny-home community.

Purple Heart Homes’ mission is to provide quality-of-life housing solutions for service-connected disabled veterans. With the support of 5th Street Ministries, it is a stepping stone for veterans to move from homelessness to housing, providing the physical security and stability in tiny homes, and transition into the quality of life they want to have.

“At RAM Pavement, we are very engaged with the veterans in our community. With Purple Heart Homes, we are proud to help build something that veterans can use. We worked with 5th Street Ministries to do our part of the project – fine grading, putting in the concrete pads for ADA accessibility and parking, and then doing the sidewalk and curb work. It makes a big impact on our team when we can do work that helps the community and tells our veterans that their lives matter.” – Rob Miller, President, RAM Pavement
