A local utility provider is powering up Habitat for Humanity in Chatham-Kent with a sizeable donation.
To mark 10 years of partnership, Entegrus donated $20,000 to the homebuilding organization. Since the two began working together, Entegrus' contributions have totaled over $150,000.
"Entegrus has been a steadfast partner since our 2015 Wallaceburg build, and their continued investment has been vital," said Anne Taylor, Director of Partnerships and Stakeholder Relations for Habitat for Humanity Chatham-Kent. "Their support has helped eight local families achieve the dream of homeownership, and we're excited to continue this partnership."
The utility is returning as the non-profit's signature sponsor, contributing not only financially but also volunteering at build sites, assisting at events, and serving on the organization's Board of Directors.
Jim Hogan, President and CEO of Entegrus, said he believes affordable housing is the key to thriving communities.
"We're proud to support Habitat for Humanity Chatham-Kent in their mission to create safe, stable homes for local families," Hogan shared. "We look forward to seeing the continued impact of this partnership in the years ahead."
