Habitat for Humanity launched its second annual “Home Is The Key” campaign today in Nashville, spotlighting the need for affordable housing across the U.S. As part of the kick-off, Drew and Jonathan Scott of the HGTV series Property Brothers along with volunteers started construction on safe and affordable homes for two Nashville families.
Home Is The Key 2018 will run the month of April, drawing support for affordable housing solutions from partners like At Home, Chico’s, Nissan, and Schneider Electric. People across the country can support the campaign by shopping with participating partners, who will donate a certain amount of their proceeds, or by donating directly to the campaign at habitat.org.
“At Habitat for Humanity, we have long known that home is the key to a better life,” says Jonathan Reckford, CEO of Habitat for Humanity International. “For more than 40 years, we have helped more than 13 million people become empowered to build better lives for themselves and their families. But with more than 18 million U.S. families paying more than half their income on housing, it is clear that so much more work needs to be done. Home is the Key is the opportunity for everyone to be part of the solution.”
