Nissan Canada's recent assistance to Habitat for Humanity New Brunswick is a testament to their longstanding partnership with Habitat for Humanity Canada. Each year, Nissan Canada extends support to one local Habitat in Canada through a substantial grant for the purchase of a new vehicle, aiding in site access and facilitating the day-to-day operations of Habitat teams. This year, Habitat New Brunswick received this generous grant and opted to acquire a new Nissan Rogue.
Tara Willis, Senior Manager, DEI and Philanthropy at Nissan Canada Inc. and Director of the Board of the Nissan Canada Foundation, expressed "We are humbled to continue our longstanding partnership with Habitat Canada by supporting the newly amalgamated Habitat New Brunswick. Their mission aligns perfectly with Nissan Canada Foundation's commitment to enhancing community well-being. The grant will not only empower Habitat New Brunswick to reach more families but will also amplify their voice in advocating for affordable housing. We're excited to be a part of their journey as they drive home the message that everyone deserves a place to call home."
"It is support such as this generosity from Nissan Canada that allows us to build a solid foundation for families in need of a safe, affordable home. Habitat New Brunswick currently has 84 families in homes throughout New Brunswick. Our build plans for this year include construction of a duplex on Albert Street in Fredericton; a modular built duplex on Water Street in Miramichi; a three-bedroom modular built bungalow on Churchill Street in Moncton; and a fully accessible bungalow in Saint John. This newly purchased Nissan Rogue will play a significant role in helping us access these various build sites, as well as annual visits with current homeowner families and attending meetings with municipalities across the province as we plan for many more home build projects," says Perry Kendall, CEO of Habitat New Brunswick.
