 SPC James "Jimmy" Benoit   Mission Accompished Logo Wharton, New Jersey

 

A big Thank You to everyone who helped make the Benoit's Home a reality!  Homes for Our Troops donated this beautiful home to Jimmy in December 2007.


SPC Benoit was severely wounded Sept. 8, 2005, by a roadside bomb attack in Iraq that severely wounded his backside, and left him confined to a wheelchair with the long-term prognosis that he may never walk again without assistance. SPC Benoit spent six months at Walter Reed Army Medical Center, undergoing 77 operations to repair wounds that he has suffered.

With a buildable lot that Jimmy purchased from the borough of Wharton, Homes for Our Troops, along with the efforts of the mayor and councilmen of the borough in which Jimmy grew up, worked with local donors, businesses and contractors to build Jimmy a home to meet his needs.
