We are building two homes for three families this summer:
• Two semi-detached homes in Guelph: #3 and #5 Johnston Street
• One single family home in Arthur: 211 Isabella Street South 

#5 Johnston Street Sponsored by Whirlpool Canada

We are very pleased to announce that Whirlpool Canada is the Home Sponsor of the build at #5 Johnston Street. The company has donated $100,000 towards construction of the home and approximately 100 employees will spend time on the build site during July and August.

This is the second Habitat home in Guelph to be sponsored by Whirlpool Canada and the third in Canada. In 2007, the company sponsored the build at 27 Morris Street, Guelph and over 100 employees helped out on the build site. In 2008, Whirlpool Canada sponsored a Habitat home built in Halton Region.

Whirlpool Canada is a longstanding donor of appliances for Habitat for Humanity builds across the country, donating a Whirlpool® Refrigerator and Range to every new Habitat home. Whirlpool Corporation is also a strategic partner of Habitat for Humanity, participating in builds globally since 1999.

#3 Johnston Street
This build is the first in which we have partnered with a multi-faith group. Through a project spearheaded by St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church and known as My Neighbour’s House, #3 Johnston Street will be built in partnership with a group of churches and other faith groups who will raise funds and provide volunteers needed for this build. Habitat will select the homeowner family, design and organize the construction of the home, and schedule the volunteers.br />
