Together, we’re not just building homes, we’re building more resilient neighborhoods and creating opportunities that will benefit the community for generations to come.”

“Assurant and CNH have been committed and valuable partners to our local chapter for many years,” said Rex Hamilton, Director of Development and Communications at Habitat for Humanity of Racine & Kenosha Counties. “The broad support both companies provide play a significant role in our efforts to build homes and create thriving communities. We are proud to have them as partners and look forward to helping even more families build affordable and sustainable housing in the local area.”

“On average, homes in Racine are completed within 10-11 months,” added Hamilton. “Approximately 70% of each home is volunteer-built, and in 2024, just shy of 4,000 volunteer hours were given on our build sites. Our goal is to have these first two Herrick Village homes completed in June 2026.
