Habitat for Humanity Partners with Consumers Energy for Power of Home Fundraiser

April 8, 2025/in News

Consumers Energy to Match Donations by 50% to Support Affordable Housing in Michigan

Lansing, MI – April 1, 2025 – Habitat for Humanity of Michigan announces the return of the Power of Home fundraiser, a partnership with Consumers Energy that will help build and repair homes for families across Michigan. Beginning April 1, every dollar raised will be matched by Consumers Energy at 50%, increasing the impact of every donation. For example, a $100 donation will be matched with $50, making a total contribution of $150 toward Habitat’s mission.

Consumers Energy has committed $100,000 in matching funds, meaning that if the campaign reaches its $200,000 goal, the total raised will amount to $300,000 to support affordable housing efforts statewide. Since its inception in 2013, the Power of Home campaign has raised $3.3 million to help Habitat for Humanity affiliates across Michigan serve families in need.

“The Power of Home campaign is an example of what we can accomplish when communities, corporations, and nonprofits come together with a shared purpose,” said Don Wilkinson, CEO of Habitat for Humanity of Michigan. “Thanks to the ongoing support from Consumers Energy and the generosity of donors across the state, we’re able to make homeownership a reality for more Michigan families.”

“We are excited to continue this collaboration to support our friends and neighbors across the state,” said Lauren Snyder, Consumers Energy’s vice president of customer experience. “We are committed to helping customers save money. This initiative will reduce their energy costs, putting more money back into their pockets.”

With 44 Habitat for Humanity affiliates participating in this statewide campaign, matching funds will be distributed across the state. Donors are encouraged to contribute as soon as possible after the campaign launches to ensure their gifts receive the match in our community before funds run out.
