Wells Fargo Foundation’s funding also helps Habitat build systems that advance housing equity for all people and address policies that have prevented access to safe and affordable housing. Since 2020, Habitat for Humanity has recorded that more than 8,400 Wells Fargo employees have contributed 45,000 volunteer hours. Through their efforts, Habitat for Humanity has been able to serve nearly 1,900 families and positively impact the lives of 6,000 individuals.
“Wells Fargo’s sustained investment in affordable housing and community revitalization has had a profound impact on families across Central Arizona,” said Todd Rogers, President and CEO of Habitat for Humanity Central Arizona. “Their financial support and the time and energy their employees donate as volunteers have helped make stable, safe housing a reality for many of our neighbors. We are deeply grateful for Wells Fargo’s continued partnership and commitment to building stronger, healthier communities.”
Wells Fargo volunteers remain a vital part of this partnership, contributing thousands of hours on build sites, repair projects and neighborhood improvement efforts. Their hands-on support, together with Wells Fargo’s grant funding, accelerates projects that create long-term stability and opportunity for local families.
