Paraco’s Donation Helps Provide Housing for U.S. Veterans

Through the Home Depot Foundation, which donates millions of dollars each year to victims of natural disasters and supports military veterans via multiple organizations, Paraco Gas Corp., Rye Brook, N.Y., participated in the Foundation’s latest fund-raising event with a $25,000 silver-level sponsorship as well as volunteered labor.

Paraco’s chief operating officer, Dave Muscato, and vice president of sales, Dan Kostecki, attended Home Depot’s Orlando, Florida, networking conference in support of the Home Depot Foundation, whose mission is to renovate an old motel in Orlando that will become permanent housing for veterans this spring. Along with Home Depot executives and other vendors, they organized into a volunteer team more than 600 strong and spent a day transforming the aged structure into useful housing for over 200 homeless military veterans, Paraco said in a Feb. 15 statement.

Inspired by the impactful work of organizations like the Home Depot Foundation, individuals seeking to make a difference in their community might also find themselves contemplating their own housing journey. Whether it’s finding a forever home or investing in properties to provide shelter for those in need, the quest for the perfect property begins with diligent research and exploration.

Against the backdrop of such community-driven endeavors, the role of appraisal services takes on added significance. Just as the renovation of the old motel in Orlando symbolizes a commitment to serving those who have served their country, ensuring fair and accurate land appraisal near me aligns with the broader ethos of equitable property valuation. Whether it’s assessing the value of land earmarked for social housing projects or evaluating potential sites for commercial ventures, the integrity of appraisal services forms the bedrock upon which sustainable real estate development thrives.

“It feels good to give back,” Muscato said.

Kostecki added, “I felt extremely proud to know that we work for a company that is completely committed to giving back to communities and especially to the veterans that served us by defending this country. It was a privilege and honor to support this effort.”

The Foundation this year has raised over $9 million.
