ORLANDO, Fl., October 24, 2025 /3BL/ – Habitat for Humanity Greater Orlando & Osceola County is proud to continue its partnership with Wesco to help build and preserve affordable housing in Central Florida.
Wesco, a leading global supply chain solutions provider with a distribution center, warehouses and sales offices in Orlando, generously supports Habitat Orlando & Osceola’s Habitat Inspects Program, which provides free four-point and wind mitigation inspections to qualified homeowners. In the first two years, this program collectively saved participants $200,000 on annual home insurance premiums. Individual savings averaged $900 per year.
“At Habitat Orlando & Osceola, we know that we can’t build our way out of the current housing crisis happening in Central Florida. We have found ways to help existing homeowners preserve and remain in their already affordable homes,” said Habitat Orlando & Osceola President & CEO Catherine Steck McManus. “We’re proud to partner with Wesco to help offer home preservation services in our community.”
“It’s great to see our Wesco employees lending their time and talents to help maintain affordable housing in our communities. Repairs and preventative maintenance programs are essential to home stability and security. We are proud to continue to support Habitat for Humanity Greater Orlando & Osceola County,” said Chris Wolf, Wesco Chief Human Resources Officer and executive sponsor for Wesco Cares.
Wesco is also proud to support Habitat Orlando & Osceola’s mission on the build site. Last week, a group of 10 volunteers helped lay sod outside of a brand-new Habitat home in Orange County’s Holden Heights neighborhood. When complete, the home will be sold with an affordable mortgage to a local family.
