Staff sergeant Sandra Lee bravely completed eight years of Honorable Service as

Staff sergeant Sandra Lee bravely completed eight years of Honorable Service as a Civil Affairs Specialist during Operation Iraqi Freedom; surviving four roadside bombs, suffering a traumatic brain injury and battling post-traumatic stress disorder. Her daily fight is now climbing the three floors of her apartment and coping with the resulting aggravation in her knee injury.

Home makeover expert George Oliphant teams up with Purple Heart Homes to give Sandra Lee the home of her dreams.

Coming home she felt lost and struggled with post traumatic stress. The Purple Heart Homes Organization helped her get back on her feet.

“For a very long time, many years I lost faith in humanity you know coming back from Iraq and now it’s renewed my faith in people again,” Lee said.

Purple Heart Homes is an organization that works to help wounded veterans. Through fundraisers, the community donated tens of thousands of dollars toward the project and businesses donated supplies and their time.

“This is what it’s all about, to see this generous town and its people give,” said Vicki Thomas from Purple Heart Homes.

For Sandra, seeing it all culminate to this moment is overwhelming.

This is very nice! Sandra truly deserves it!
