Habitat for Humanity of Lapeer-Tuscola secures a $25,000 boost from Kohl’s Cares to support affordable housing for veterans, expanding local aid in 2025.
Kohl’s Cares Donates $25,000 to Support Veterans in Need
Habitat for Humanity of Lapeer-Tuscola recently announced a significant boost to its community efforts, thanks to a $25,000 grant from Kohl’s Cares National Giveback Initiative. This donation is dedicated to enhancing affordable housing and essential home repair options for veterans within Lapeer County. Habitat’s leaders confirmed the funds are earmarked for initiatives launching in 2025, aiming to expand affordable housing access among local veterans.
The grant reflects Kohl’s commitment to health and wellness for families nationwide, made possible through Kohl’s Cares merchandise program, which donates all profits from specific children’s products to charitable organizations. With this support, Habitat Lapeer-Tuscola intends to broaden its impact on veteran families, following a recently completed home renovation in Tuscola County. “This grant strengthens our mission to offer veterans a solid foundation for stability and security,” a representative shared.
Building on Success with New Goals for 2025
Fresh off a successful Tuscola County project, which placed a local veteran family in a renovated home, Habitat is looking ahead to expand its mission further. The organization is actively seeking partnerships for 2025, particularly aiming for a new renovation or donation project in Huron County. Community members are encouraged to step forward with any potential homes or properties for consideration. Habitat’s commitment to regional veterans remains strong, with plans to provide enhanced resources in collaboration with local partners.
National Giveback Reflects Growing Corporate-Charity Partnerships
Kohl’s Cares initiative, a nationwide program, channels retail profits into grants supporting family-focused non-profits. Habitat for Humanity chapters across the U.S. have increasingly become grant recipients, underscoring a growing trend of retail-charity partnerships aiming for high-impact community change. As economic conditions tighten, such partnerships are crucial to sustaining essential services, from housing to health programs.
