It is Wayfair’s fourth year as a Habitat for Humanity partner as it continues to provide financial support, volunteer mobilization and product donations to help eliminate substandard housing.
“We are proud to extend our partnership with Habitat and continue to support such an important cause,” said Niraj Shah, CEO and co-founder of Wayfair. “We believe in giving back to the community both locally and globally. Through our Habitat partnership, we are able to help create safe and secure homes for people in need worldwide.”
Wayfair has contributed more than $600,000 to Habitat for Humanity, which has built or repaired more than 1 million homes serving more than 5 million people worldwide since the organization’s founding in 1976. Wayfair donates home furnishings and decor to Habitat for Humanity ReStore resale outlets to help fund home builds across the United States. Wayfair also assists in disaster response, and raises funds and awareness for the organization by providing a donation at checkout feature on Wayfair.com.
