Dave Howard

David is the founder of the Homes For Heroes Foundation, a Canadian charity dedicated to constructing and managing tiny home villages that provide comprehensive social support programs for unhoused veterans. He achieved remarkable success by establishing Canada’s first tiny home village through collaboration with various levels of government, private businesses, and individuals, despite skepticism from housing experts regarding the program's viability. Today, the initiative is thriving and is positively impacting the lives of thousands of veterans.

David's compelling personal narrative enriches his professional achievements. His audience discovers how living with undiagnosed ADHD and learning disabilities propelled him into a challenging cycle of substance abuse, which he ultimately conquered to graduate from university with honors on the Dean's List. He reveals insightful anecdotes from his experiences collaborating with renowned figures in music, politics, and entertainment. Ultimately, David's entrepreneurial path and philanthropic efforts highlight his capacity to thrive where others have struggled, particularly through his partnerships with various government levels, private enterprises, and individuals to create Canada's first tiny home village for veterans.

For the last 25 years, David has dedicated himself to supporting those who have defended Canada. He has created and led initiatives aimed at helping our Canadian heroes receive the assistance they need when transitioning to civilian life. Serving one’s country comes with unique challenges, and the programs David has developed are highly valued within the veteran community.
