Habitat for Humanity International announced that it is continuing its long-standing partnership with Nissan. For more than 20 years, Nissan has supported Habitat through disaster recovery efforts, new home construction, team builds, and community development work in communities in the United States.
As part of its 2026 commitment, Nissan will partner with 10 Habitat affiliates across the United States, including Habitat for Humanity Mississippi Capital Area (Jackson, Miss.); Habitat for Humanity of Greater Nashville (Nashville, Tenn.); Habitat for Humanity Rutherford County Area (Murfreesboro, Tenn.); Habitat for Humanity of Oakland County (Pontiac, Mich.); and Dallas Area Habitat for Humanity (Dallas, Texas), to support home building projects. Nissan will also donate durable work trucks to aid Habitat’s efforts. The 2026 Nissan Frontier recipients are Holston Habitat for Humanity (Kingsport, Tenn.) and Habitat for Humanity Mississippi Capital Area. Since the partnership began in 2005, Nissan has made financial contributions of more than $21 million and donated more than 160 vehicles to local Habitat affiliates to support the non-profit’s efforts.
“At Nissan, we believe mobility is about more than the vehicles we manufacture,” said Ali Tonn, Nissan’s senior manager of Philanthropy. “It’s also about helping people move forward in life. That’s why partnering with Habitat for Humanity is so important to us. Safe, stable housing strengthens families, fuels economic opportunity, and builds the kind of resilient communities where people can thrive.
“We’re especially proud of our employees, who bring this commitment to life by volunteering their time and talent on Habitat build sites across the country. Their dedication reflects the heart of our company and our shared belief in creating brighter, more sustainable futures for the communities we serve.”
Nissan first partnered with Habitat when the company donated 50 trucks and mobilized employees to support rebuilding efforts following Hurricanes Katrina and Rita. Over the years, Nissan employees have logged more than 180,000 volunteer hours to help build more than 300 Habitat homes in nine markets.
