loanDepot celebrates third season with Major League Baseball unveiling new campaign and beneficiary: Habitat for Humanity
New partnership with Habitat to help families build and improve places to call home
IRVINE, Calif. (Mar. 31, 2023) — Returning for the third season as the presenting sponsor of the MLB American League Championship Series and National League Championship Series, loanDepot unveiled its new Ballpark Bingo: A Celebration of Firsts campaign.
As a purpose-driven lender committed to helping Americans realize their financial and homeownership goals, loanDepot will support Habitat for Humanity on its mission to help families build and improve places to call home. As fans stamp their bingo cards, big milestones throughout the season including the first no-hitter and first clinched ALCS and NLCS berths will unlock donations from loanDepot. These funds will support the building and repairing of affordable homes and help Habitat homeowners to achieve the strength, stability and independence they need to build a better life for themselves and for their families. And, as part of the campaign, loanDepot will send one lucky grand prize winner to the first game of each series.
“Our partnership with MLB is all about connecting with baseball fans in communities across the country, and in our third season, Ballpark Bingo will allow us to do this in a fun and interactive way, celebrating firsts on the field while our customers experience firsts in homeownership,” said loanDepot President and CEO Frank Martell. “As a purpose-driven lender, our commitment to the communities where our team lives and works is in our DNA, and our new partnership with Habitat for Humanity will make a real impact by helping build and repair safe and healthy homes with families.”
“We are thrilled to benefit from loanDepot’s season-long celebration of firsts,” said Julie Laird Davis, vice president, corporate and cause marketing partnerships at Habitat for Humanity International. “Habitat for Humanity believes in a world where everyone has a safe, decent and affordable place to call home. Through the support of loanDepot, we will be able to partner with even more families to build or improve a place to call home and help to make communities healthier, safer and more resilient.”

About Habitat for Humanity
Driven by the vision that everyone needs a decent place to live, Habitat for Humanity found its earliest inspirations as a grassroots movement on an interracial community farm in south Georgia. Since its founding in 1976, the Christian housing organization has since grown to become a leading global nonprofit working in local communities across all 50 states in the U.S. and in more than 70 countries. Families and individuals in need of a hand up partner with Habitat for Humanity to build or improve a place they can call home. Habitat homeowners help build their own homes alongside volunteers and pay an affordable mortgage. Through financial support, volunteering or adding a voice to support affordable housing, everyone can help families achieve the strength, stability and self-reliance they need to build better lives for themselves. Through shelter, we empower. To learn more, visit habitat.org.
