Colin Faust

Sergeant Colin Faust joined the United States Marines in 2009. In 2010, while on foot patrol in the northern Helmand Province of Afghanistan, Sgt Faust stepped on an improvised explosive device (IED) and lost his left leg and severely injured his right leg and left arm.

In June 2014, Jared Allen’s Homes for Wounded Warriors (JAH4WW) broke ground in Minnetrista, Minnesota on its first-ever, built-from-the-ground-up, accessible home for Sgt Faust. In February 2015, JAH4WW completed this custom-built home, which includes accessible bathrooms, an accessible kitchen and an elevator donated by Midwest Elevator and Drilling.

To successfully complete the build, JAH4WW partnered with North Central States Regional Council of Carpenters (NCSRCC), which included: Carpenters, Floorcoverers, Cement Masons, Title Setters, Brick Layers, Electricians, and Insulators through Homeco Insulators. Other contributors included: Wells Fargo, Semper Fi Fund, Denali Homes, and Russ Drake Construction.
