CHARLOTTE — Two nonprofits are joining forces to make sure a local veteran has a safe place to live.

Donald Surratt spent the majority of his life in a home that needed lots of repairs and he wasn’t sure how much longer he could live there.

“My home was in despair. I needed repairs to it,” he said.

Surratt is got the help he has needed thanks to the nonprofits. For more information, click here.
