As the largest corporate sponsor for Habitat for
Humanity International, Whirlpool Corporation donates
an ENERGY STAR®-qualified refrigerator and a range to
every Habitat home built in the United States and Canada.
Whirlpool also contributes hearts and hammers to the
effort. Last year, 600 Whirlpool employees joined together
to build a Habitat home in Benton Harbor, Michigan.
Home ownership dream comes true
"I wanted a home of my own," says Cherry Mesa, an
administrative assistant and the mother of five teenagers.
Cherry’s Habitat for Humanity home was the first one
sponsored by Whirlpool Corporation in the Benton Harbor,
Michigan, area. Cherry helped establish a Habitat office in
Benton Harbor and then she, her children and many volunteers,
including Whirlpool employees, helped build her house.
Cherry likes to show off her Whirlpool appliances that
were donated by the company as part of its commitment to
Habitat for Humanity. "I love my house," she says. "I get
excited about doing little things to spruce it up and make it
personal for me and my family."
