Grant will fund new home builds and revitalization projects, the expansion of Habitat’s Mobile Response Unit fleet and vehicle donations to Habitat affiliates. Ten years after its first donation to Habitat for Humanity, Nissan today announced a $1 million grant to help build affordable, sustainable homes in partnership with families in need of decent housing and to support Habitat’s disaster response... “Nissan employees engage directly with those families by making personal commitments of their time and effort in Habitat home builds. A portion of Nissan’s contribution will be used to double Habitat’s Mobile Response Unit fleet to 10 units, boosting its capacity to quickly support U. S. affiliates and their long-term recovery efforts following natural disasters. “The generous donation from Nissan and the volunteers who continue to work alongside those in need of decent housing makes such a difference in the lives of families and communities,” said Jonathan Reckford, CEO of Habitat for Humanity International. This year, Nissan employees will volunteer to support Habitat affiliates in Canada as well as construction or revitalization projects in these U. S. locations:.
