Since 1999, Habitat for Humanity International and Whirlpool Corporation have worked together to help improve lives and increase access to safe, resilient and affordable homes in communities around the world. 2024 marks the 25th anniversary of the Whirlpool and Habitat collaboration.  

Over the lifetime of the relationship, Whirlpool has given more than $140 million in funding and donated products supporting nearly 200,000 Habitat households in the U.S. and close to 1 million people in more than 50 countries worldwide. 

“At Whirlpool, we believe that the four walls around us have the power to unlock immense opportunity, and we are grateful for 25 incredible years working with Habitat to impact more than 1 million people by helping them build the foundation for a stable life and a bright future,” said Pam Klyn, Whirlpool Corporation executive vice president of corporate relations and sustainability. “Our shared vision of improving lives through homeownership and improving communities as well has been very rewarding for our employees and our organization as a whole.” 

“Whirlpool Corporation has been an invaluable partner to Habitat for the last 25 years, and we are thrilled to celebrate this important milestone in our relationship,” said Jonathan Reckford, CEO, Habitat for Humanity International. “Whirlpool and Habitat have worked together to improve and broaden the ways we can help more families achieve housing stability, and as a result, we have made a profound impact on the lives of millions of families around the world. We are grateful for Whirlpool’s dedication to helping us build a world where everyone has a decent place to live.”
