Thanks to our Media Partners!
A special thank you to all of our media partners who donated time for our public service announcements (PSA's) on the radio, on TV or in the newspapers and magazines. Thanks also to those groups - both large and small - that helped to organize special events in 2009 which benefited Habitat for Humanity Canada. Every dollar counts as we strive to build more affordable homes in partnership with low-income families.

And a special thank you to the many extraordinary donors and employees of donor companies who also volunteered their time during the past year, helping out in Habitat Affiliate offices and ReStores and on build sites across the country.

Donors made it possible to obtain land and building materials; 50,000 volunteers put it all together. You are sincerely appreciated.
