Arnold Schwarzenegger was the former governor of California and donated 25 tiny homes to veterans in celebration of the holiday season.

Fox11 reported the purchase of the structures in West Los Angeles by the actor at 74 years old for $250,000, Fox11 reported.

Schwarzenegger had taken to social media to explain the project dear to his heart. He wrote:

 

“Today, I celebrated Christmas early. Los Angeles installed the 25 homes I donated to homeless veterans. It was great to spend time with our heroes and to welcome them into their new homes.

“I want to thank @villageforvets for arranging the homes and being a fantastic partner, @secvetaffairs, @amvetshq and everyone who worked with us and made this possible. We proved that when we all work together, we can solve any problem.”

Village for Vets also told The Post that there were “just under 4,000 homeless veterans in Los Angeles at the last count in 2020.”

They made the following statement:

 

“The tiny shelter project to which Governor Schwarzenegger so generously donated is a partnership with the VA and is designed to be a transitional respite for homeless Veterans between living on the street and entering a higher level of care – ultimately permanent housing.”

Village for Vets said their programs “make an immediate impact on the lives of the Veterans we serve,” evident in an account from one of the vets, named Bruce Henry Cooper, who told the local station that the project has been a “life-saver” for him. “He has not forgotten us,” Cooper said of Schwarzenegger.
