Carrier Marks Habitat for Humanity’s 50th Anniversary by Helping Build Homes in Atlanta

Atlanta, Ga. -

Carrier continues to support Habitat for Humanity, participating in the 40th Jimmy & Rosalynn Carter Work Project building 24 new single-family homes and townhomes in southwest Atlanta over five days. Carrier is a part of Carrier Global Corporation (NYSE: CARR), global leader in intelligent climate and energy solutions. 

Carrier employees will volunteer their time alongside counterparts from Mingledorff’s, the largest Carrier distributor in the southeast, and local contractors from the Atlanta area. Carrier employees have participated in Habitat’s signature build every year since 2018. The company is sponsoring the event for the fifth year. This year’s weeklong build coincides with Habitat for Humanity International’s 50th anniversary. 

“The Carter Work Project is a powerful demonstration of what is possible when a community comes together,” said Heidi Gehring, Managing Director, Light Commercial, Carrier. “Carrier is proud to be part of the community and eager to roll up our sleeves to help provide opportunities and stronger foundations for new homeowners.” 

The volunteer effort also reinforces Carrier’s purpose — enhancing the lives we live and the world we share. 

The build will kick off construction at Langston Park, Atlanta Habitat for Humanity’s newest planned community in the historic Sylvan Hills neighborhood of southwest Atlanta. 

“Mingledorff’s is thrilled to give back to our community while working side-by-side with Carrier and our contractors,” said David Kesterton, President and CEO of Mingledorff’s. “We don’t just serve the community; we are part of the community and proud to join alongside our neighbors in support of Habitat for Humanity.” 

Langston Park represents a bold step forward in expanding affordable homeownership and a first for Atlanta Habitat: modern, sustainable, townhome-style living, Habitat officials said. With proximity to MARTA, the Atlanta BeltLine and green spaces, the development is designed to help families build stable, connected lives in southwest Atlanta. 

Carrier is a steadfast supporter of Habitat for Humanity’s mission to provide safe, affordable housing, advancing that work through a broader initiative focused on building energy-efficient, resilient homes. For more than 30 years, Carrier has collaborated with the organization, providing millions of dollars in combined product and funding support and thousands of volunteer hours in local communities.
