Thrivent Builds - Habitat for Humanity

 

For the seventh straight year, Thrivent Financial for Lutherans is committing millions to stabilize, strengthen and secure communities in 2012 by creating affordable housing in partnership with low-income families through its unique partnership called Thrivent Builds with Habitat for Humanity.

 

Thrivent Financial for Lutherans announced that in 2012 it will fund the construction and rehabilitation of 142 Habitat for Humanity homes in 32 U.S. states through a $9.2 million contribution.  Thrivent Financial’s total seven-year support of Habitat for Humanity, helping families achieve the dream of homeownership, will surpass $160 million in 2012.

 

Habitat for Humanity’s relationship with Thrivent Financial brings the financial, volunteer and advocacy resources of Thrivent Financial together with the affordable housing construction leadership of hundreds of local Habitat for Humanity affiliates.  To date, more than 480,000 volunteers have donated more than three million hours to construct 1,600 homes.
