American Home Shield: We Proudly Support Our Nation’s Heroes

AHS Logo

American Home Shield is proud to support those who have served. That’s why we’ve built a home warranty program that gives military families something meaningful in return. Our home warranty military discount is more than a price break—it’s a way to protect your budget and safeguard your biggest investment—your home. 


Every American hero deserves peace of mind. And often, that peace of mind begins at home—with the support of a home warranty.

Our commitment to helping military heroes

Here are a few of the ways American Home Shield has been dedicated to supporting the military and military families:

Veterans’ discount

American Home Shield is proud to offer military service members—including veterans, reservists, and those on active duty—a 20% home warranty military discount.* This special offer helps make homeownership less stressful for our heroes, ensuring that military members can spend more time with loved ones, on and off duty, without worrying about unexpected covered breakdowns and their associated costs.

Support for veterans housing initiatives

As part of our commitment to military personnel, AHS partnered in a special initiative to give away three tiny homes to Project Sanctuary, a non-profit focused on helping military families. Our aim was to directly support veteran and military housing needs by providing, comfortable, and supportive environments for those who have served our country.

Our partnership with Military Makeover

In 2025, American Home Shield teamed up with Lifetime Network’s Military Makeover hosted by Montel Williams to provide a home warranty giveaway for a Purple Heart veteran and his family. Our own AHS veteran associate are featured as the spokesperson in the execution of this event, sharing their experiences and showing support for this important initiative.

Veteran-focused company programs

Company-wide, our Veteran Associate Resource Group leads the way in raising awareness through military-focused events like Veteran’s Day and Memorial Day 5K walks, as well as supporting internal programs. 


Company programs like our partnership with Service 2 Software empower prior service members by offering industry-specific training and learning opportunities, helping them successfully transition to civilian careers while fostering a culture of support and goodwill.

Why choose American Home Shield?

When it comes to protecting your home, many people think of homeowners insurance—but that only helps after unexpected events like fire, storms, or theft. A home warranty is different: it helps cover the repair or replacement costs when the key systems or appliances you rely on most break down from normal wear and tear. That’s why so many military families trust American Home Shield.

Top-ranking veteran home warranty provider

American Home Shield is proud to support our military families and be there for America’s heroes. We are honored to be ranked the top home warranty for Veterans and military families by This Old House blog. Read the full ranking here.


Our dedication to those who serve shows through our support of military housing initiatives, along with special benefits and discounts for service members.
