Operation Coming Home Veteran recognition

Lennar honors veteran Khris Decapua with new home

Lennar Charlotte has partnered with national non-profit Operation: Coming Home to provide a new home for a U.S. veteran in its Waterside at the Catawba community.

U.S. Marine Staff Sergeant Khris DeCapua completed three tours of combat in Iraq and Afghanistan where his platoon was attacked by a suicide vehicle containing 600 pounds of explosives. The attack wounded 20 soldiers including DeCapua, leaving him with PTSD, traumatic brain injuries and migraines.

“We can’t think a better way to honor Khris’ fearless service to our country,” shares President of Lennar’s Charlotte Division Jon Hardy. “Waterside at the Catawba is a terrific community for young families and we’re excited to help Khris, his wife Meghan and their newborn daughter move in soon.”

A groundbreaking and key presentation ceremony will take place at 1 p.m. on Friday, April 22 at the DeCapua’s future residence in Lennar’s Waterside at the Catawba community. The event is free, open to the public and will feature a presentation from Andrew Ladner, President of Operation: Coming Home; Jon Hardy, Division President of Lennar; Mick Mulvaney, U.S. Congressman; Larry Huntley, Fort Mill Councilman and a representative from the U.S. Marine Corps.

Lennar’s Waterside at the Catawba community is located on 636 Mackenzie Falls Dr. in Fort Mill, S.C. 29715. For more information, visit www.lennar.com or call a New Home consultant at 888-208-4141.
