Corporate and foundation partners

In 2017, hurricanes Irma and Maria wreaked havoc in Puerto Rico. These horrific forces of nature left thousands of people homeless. Unfortunately, there were also many fatalities due to the devastating storms. In seeking to rebuild the island, strengthen communities left in ruins, and provide housing for families in desperate need, AbbVie, a research-based pharmaceutical company, stepped forward to help fill the void by partnering with Habitat for Humanity.

As Puerto Rico’s largest employer, AbbVie witnessed firsthand the toll that Irma and Maria took on its workers and their families. As a committed corporate citizen, AbbVie provided a generous donation of US$50 million to Habitat for Humanity in 2018 to help facilitate the rebuilding process. The funds have been implemented in a variety of ways to support the citizens of Puerto Rico, including:

• Creating a wholistic program focused on home repairs and new housing construction on the island.
• Helping homeowners secure land tenure.
• To date, Habitat has helped families repair 500 hurricane damaged homes and counting.
• Habitat lead the renovations of a hurricane-ravished condominium building in San Juan’s Santurce Barrio, which is now the home to 12 families.

The Home Depot Foundation has contributed more than $28 million to help fund critical home repairs and accessibility modifications of veterans’ homes through Habitat for Humanity’s Repair Corps program since 2012.

With the Foundation’s support, Habitat’s Repair Corps has served more than 1,800 veterans across the U.S. Additionally, The Home Depot’s associate volunteer force, known as Team Depot, partners with local Habitat organizations across the country to build alongside homeowners. In 2022, The Home Depot Foundation announced full house sponsorships in 10 communities with military bases over the next two years. Exiting service members participating in free skilled trades training through the Foundation and Home Builder Institute’s Path to Pro program will receive on-the-job training by building these new homes alongside Habitat in those locations.

In 2022, The Home Depot Foundation also gave $1,000,000 in support of Habitat’s disaster recovery programs, supporting hurricane recovery in Louisiana and Florida, tornado and storm recovery in Kentucky, and wildfire recovery in Oregon.
