Every brick is a building block for a brighter future
When you support Habitat Canada’s gift-in-kind program your products are used directly in the homes we build to help offset construction costs and ensure that we are building with high-quality materials. Your support allows us to help more families in need of safe, decent and affordable housing.
Each year, more than 50,000 Habitat volunteers work with products donated by companies like yours to construct Habitat homes across Canada. That is thousands of people who will be exposed to your brand and products, helping your company to improve brand awareness and attract new customers.
Building materials build more than houses – the materials you donate help bring communities together to work alongside families, helping Habitat homeowners build strength and independence through affordable homeownership.
What to donate
Whether its excess inventory or new stock, we will work closely with your team to develop a partnership that meets your business needs. We are always in need of the following building materials:

"Our partnership with Habitat for Humanity is collaborative and it’s making a difference that’s tangible and long-lasting. Well-functioning appliances are integral pieces of a safe and decent home and our energy-efficient appliances help contribute to a more affordable home, which is why we donate a fridge and stove for every Habitat home built in Canada.” - Stephen Stewart of Whirlpool Canada
This podcast talks to three long-time corporate supporters and asks why they’re so connected to Habitat’s mission, and how engaging their employees in their corporate social responsibility is not only reflective of their organizational values, but is integrated into their operations.
With a lot of help from our friends
