Dow & Habitat for Humanity
Dow Building Solutions has provided Habitat for Humanity International with building and construction materials for more than 30,000 homes worldwide over the past 25 years.
Building Great Things Together
A proud and active supporter of Habitat for Humanity International since the early 1980s, Dow lends support to Habitat in many ways, including funding, donations of building materials, public visibility for Habitat programs and employee volunteer work crews at builds around the world.
In 1994, Dow committed to be the exclusive supplier of rigid foam insulation for all Habitat homes built in North America. This commitment was renewed in 1997 and extended again in 2001, when Dow committed to supply US$5 million worth of STYROFOAM™ Brand Insulation for the next 25,000 Habitat homes built in North America from 2002 through 2005. At the same time, Dow began donating insulation and sponsoring Habitat's homebuilding efforts in communities around the world.
The relationship between Dow and Habitat for Humanity has continued to grow each year and has become an important part of Dow culture.
Contributing to Long-term Affordability
With the utility bill typically ranking as the highest family payment after the mortgage itself, energy-efficient products from Dow Building Solutions are an ideal way for all homeowners to reduce home heating and cooling costs, contributing to long-term affordability.
