Corporate Partnerships
We get it. Your organization cares about who you support. You want to know that your donation dollars will make an impact.

That’s why we want to partner with you.
We are Habitat for Humanity GTA, and we are the region’s most recognized provider and advocate of solutions that tackle our region’s housing crisis.
