About Baths for the Brave
At Baths for the Brave, we believe in the power of gratitude and action. Our mission is simple yet profound: to improve the lives of those who have sacrificed so much for our freedom.
Founded by Brian Gottlieb, Baths for the Brave is a unique collaboration between dozens of home improvement companies across the United States. We've united with a common purpose - to give back to our nation's heroes in a tangible, life-changing way.
Our Commitment to Veterans
Every year, just in time for Veterans Day, we embark on a remarkable journey. In a single day, we transform the lives of deserving veterans by providing them with free bathroom remodels, so they can have a safer showering experience. These aren't just renovations; they're a gateway to independence and dignity for those who have faced challenges due to mobility issues.
Why Bathrooms Matter
A slip or fall in a bathroom can often lead to a life-changing injury. For many disabled veterans, a simple task like bathing can be a daily struggle. Our mission is to eliminate these barriers, offering freedom and self-reliance where it's needed most: in the bathroom. As one of our recipients, Ryan Buglar, put it: "This will absolutely mean independence and freedom for me!"
More Than a Remodel
Baths for the Brave is about more than just bathroom renovations. It's about recognizing the ongoing sacrifices of our veterans and saying "thank you" in a way that makes a real difference. We believe that by improving their daily lives, we honor their service and show our enduring gratitude.

Frequently Asked Questions
Created in 2016 by entrepreneur Brian Gottlieb, the founder of Tundraland Home Improvements, Baths for the Brave is a national partnership of home improvement companies dedicated to providing free, high-quality bathroom remodels for veterans. Today, the mission exists to restore independence and dignity to those who served, specifically by removing physical barriers to safe bathing through the installation of walk-in showers and safety tubs. The program serves as a tangible expression of gratitude, addressing the safety risks and financial burdens faced by disabled or elderly veterans across more than 35 states.
Any bath remodeling company located in the United States that has been in business for at least one year is eligible.
When must the installation take place? To maximize the national impact and collective storytelling of the movement, all 2026 partner installations must be performed on Veterans Day: Wednesday, November 11, 2026.
Why is the date mandatory?
Performing the installs simultaneously across the country allows the initiative to gain significant national media attention and creates a "wave" of impact. It ensures that while your local team is changing a life in your city, dozens of other teams are doing the exact same thing, reinforcing the power of the national partnership.
