Merit Restorations Honors Veterans with $50,000 Gift to Boulder Crest Foundation

Contribution supports life-changing programs that help veterans and their families find strength, purpose, and hope in the aftermath of trauma.

Our veterans have sacrificed so much in service to our country. We owe them more than our gratitude. We owe them our continued support, our investment in their futures, and the opportunity to thrive.”

— Sam Chapman, CEO of Merit Restorations

PURCELLVILLE, VA, UNITED STATES, November 10, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- In recognition of Veterans Day, Merit Restorations, a Virginia-based property restoration and reconstruction company, has donated $50,000 to Boulder Crest Foundation, a nationally recognized nonprofit headquartered in Bluemont, Virginia, dedicated to helping veterans, first responders, and their families thrive in the aftermath of trauma.

Known as the “Home of Posttraumatic Growth,” Boulder Crest helps veterans, military members, first responders, and their families navigate life after trauma. Through research-backed programs offered at no cost to participants, the organization provides tools to turn struggle into strength and build fulfilling lives. Boulder Crest has served more than 200,000 people through its programs and Posttraumatic Growth trainings. Its flagship Warrior PATHH program helps participants develop skills to navigate challenges, strengthen relationships, and find renewed purpose.

“Our veterans have sacrificed so much in service to our country. We owe them more than our gratitude,” said Sam Chapman, CEO of Merit Restorations. “We owe them our continued support, our investment in their futures, and the opportunity to thrive. Boulder Crest is changing lives right here in our own backyard, and we are incredibly proud to stand behind their mission.”

For Merit Restorations, supporting veterans extends well beyond Veterans Day. The company has a longstanding partnership with HeroHomes Loudoun, a local nonprofit that builds homes for disabled veterans and their families. Merit's construction professionals, including veterans within its own workforce, have contributed expertise, labor, and resources to more than six HeroHomes projects, with Home Seven planned for 2027. Merit co-founders Sam Chapman and Aaron McCleary are active members of the HeroHomes Board, serving as president and vice president, respectively.

Boulder Crest founder Ken Falke has also been a valued friend and supporter of HeroHomes, contributing resources and assisting with fundraising efforts, including the organization's Annual Golf Classic, its largest fundraising event. His involvement reflects the longstanding relationships among Merit, HeroHomes, and Boulder Crest, whose efforts to support veterans and their families extend throughout Loudoun County and beyond.

As the nation pauses to recognize the courage and sacrifice of its veterans, Merit's contribution is a reminder that gratitude is most meaningful when it is followed by action.
