On October 3, 2016, Fiat Chrysler Automobiles (FCA) hosted several Habitat for Humanity affiliates for World Habitat Day activities at the Walter P. Chrysler Museum in Auburn Hills.  More than 100 FCA employees volunteered their morning to build sheds for Habitat for Humanity of Oakland County, wheelchair ramps for Macomb County Habitat for Humanity and picnic tables for Habitat for Humanity Detroit to support future Habitat homebuyers throughout the tri-county area.  FCA employees also donated household items to Habitat ReStores, which are non-profit home improvement stores and donation centers that sell new and gently used donated items to the general public at a fraction of the retail price to support the Habitat mission.This event provided an opportunity for all three affiliates to work together, and allowed them to collectively thank FCA for their long history of support. In addition to significant funding, FCA has engaged over 1,500 volunteers on Habitat projects in Oakland and Macomb Counties and the City of Detroit.

Habitat for Humanity of Oakland County is a non-profit organization that works with local families to achieve strength, stability and self-reliance through shelter. Since 1994, Habitat Oakland County has built and renovated homes in partnership with 200 families, with 62 more taking place this year. Donate, volunteer and learn more at www.HabitatOakland.org
