Avangrid Foundation Awards $135000 to Habitat for Humanity to Build Stronger Communities

The Avangrid Foundation, the philanthropic arm of sustainable energy company Avangrid, has announced a $135,000 grant to Habitat for Humanity, continuing the company's longtime partnership with the organization.

The funds will directly support the efforts of more than 10 local Habitat partners within Avangrid's service areas in New York, Maine, Connecticut, Oregon, and across the United States, per a press release.

"We believe in building more sustainable communities and investing in a positive social impact," says Avangrid CEO Pedro Azagra.

The Avangrid Foundation began a partnership with the national Habitat for Humanity in 2019, advancing the legacy of its subsidiaries which had been involved with their local Habitat partners for years through volunteering and corporate donations.

Since 2018, the foundation has contributed more than $875,000 to Habitat for Humanity to support home construction and repairs, playhouse builds, and ReStore support.
