Build Better with Whirlpool

Whirlpool Corporation worked with CCOP to develop their CSR strategy, House + Home, aimed at improving life at home for distressed communities. This framework connects Whirlpool Corporation's business capabilities with community needs, focusing on creating comfortable, nurturing places to live and supporting thriving communities through education and development. A key part of this strategy is Whirlpool Corp’s long-standing relationship with Habitat for Humanity International, starting in 1999. Over a quarter century of supporting Habitat, Whirlpool has contributed $150+ million and donated 250,000+ appliances, impacting more than a million people across 45 countries. 

Launched in 2021, BuildBetter with Whirlpool was designed to support the construction of climate-resilient, energy-efficient homes, and to scale and implement best practices across the U.S. This program has delivered 260 homes, helping families reduce operating costs and emissions. This initiative demonstrates how a long-term, purpose-led collaboration can deliver lasting, measurable impact, building affordable housing and strengthening communities worldwide.
