The Local Habitat affiliate is the Racine Habitat for Humanity. Started in 1988, the affiliate completes approximately four homes each year – either new construction or rehabilitations. Since its beginning, Racine Habitat for Humanity has built over 40 homes in the area. These homes are for those families who are |

|
|
unable to secure the finances to complete construction of a new home. Families are expected to devote 300 hours of “Sweat Equity” in the construction of the home and are responsible to make the reduced monthly mortgage payments, as they finally become homeowners. |

Each year, since 2004, JohnsonDiversey employees volunteer in the Racine Habitat for Humanity House Build, helping raise a house for a deserving Racine family. Furthermore, JohnsonDiversey is helping Racine Habitat for Humanity each year by organizing and hosting the annual Golf-outing fund raiser and the Hearts for Humanity Gala evening.
