Lockheed Martin Canada Presents $25,000 Sponsorship for New Veterans House Edmonton Project

Edmonton, AB — Veterans’ House Canada (VHC) is excited to announce a $25,000 sponsorship from Lockheed Martin Canada for the Private Therapy and Meeting Room at our Edmonton home.  The Edmonton home is currently undergoing construction and is set to open in Winter 2026.

Lockheed Martin Canada is the Canadian unit of Lockheed Martin Corporation, a leading aerospace and defence company. With over 1,000 Canadian employees at five major facilities across Canada, the company not only works towards aerospace innovations and Canada’s defence and security priorities, but also strives to play an active role in their wider local communities. Through various contributions, fundraising activities, and employee volunteer opportunities, Lockheed Martin Canada supports military and Veteran causes across the country.

Homelessness is an increasing problem amongst Veterans in Canada, and they’re overrepresented in the population of homeless people. Lockheed Martin’s support further reaffirms their commitment to the defence community.

“We are deeply grateful for your generous $25,000 sponsorship of the Private Therapy and Meeting Room at our Edmonton home. Your commitment to supporting Veterans and military communities across Canada is truly inspiring.

This contribution will help create a safe and healing space for those who have served, and we are proud to partner with an organization that shares our dedication to honouring and uplifting our Veterans.”

  • Angella Rawsthorne | VHC Fund Development Manager

“As a proud defence partner to Canada and to nations worldwide, one in five of our employees globally is a Veteran, reservist or military spouse. Military and Veteran support is deeply ingrained in our values in Canada and around the world, and we are honoured to work with Veterans’ House Canada in creating lasting impact and support for this community.”

  • Kristen Leroux | Vice President and Regional Executive, Canada and Latin America, Lockheed Martin

We would like to thank Lockheed Martin Canada for supporting our mission to provide much-needed supportive housing for homeless Veterans across Canada.
