FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Paul Davis Canada and Habitat for Humanity Canada Launch National Partnership to Strengthen Communities
Mississauga, Ontario — [August 2026] — Paul Davis Canada, a leading provider of property damage restoration services in Canada, today announced a new national partnership with Habitat for Humanity Canada aimed at supporting safe, stable housing for families, while advancing a shared commitment to sustainability, community resilience, and responsible restoration.
The collaboration will focus on three key initiatives: support for Habitat for Humanity ReStore operations, contributions to Habitat Canada’s Critical Home Repair Program, and a nationwide fundraising campaign throughout the month of October.
Through this partnership, Paul Davis franchises across Canada – who are each locally owned and operated by leaders in their communities – will actively engage customers, partners, employees, and local stakeholders in supporting Habitat for Humanity’s mission.
A key component includes promoting and supporting Habitat ReStore, a social enterprise retailer that accepts and resells donations of new and gently used furniture, appliances, décor and building materials to the public. Paul Davis will contribute materials and supplies from worksites to ReStore, which plays a critical role in diverting usable materials from landfills, giving them a second life with proceeds supporting local Habitat initiatives.
In addition, Paul Davis will contribute volunteer resources to Habitat’s Critical Home Repair Program, which helps low-income homeowners, municipalities and Indigenous communities maintain safe and livable housing through essential repairs and accessibility upgrades. This initiative reflects a shared belief in repair over rebuild, an approach that is not only more cost-effective, but also better for homeowners, strengthens communities, and reduces environmental impact.
The partnership will culminate in a national fundraising campaign during the month of October, mobilizing Paul Davis offices coast-to-coast to raise critical funds and awareness for the Critical Repairs Program. Activities will include customer donations requests, community events, and employee-led fundraising initiatives designed to maximize impact.
"At Paul Davis, we don’t just restore properties, we help restore lives," said Bill Dietz, COO of Paul Davis Restoration Inc. "Our partnership with Habitat for Humanity Canada allows us to extend that commitment beyond disaster recovery and into proactive community building. By supporting ReStore, critical home repairs, and national fundraising efforts, we are helping more Canadian families thrive in their own homes."
"Partnerships like this are essential to expanding our impact across the country," said Pedro Barata, President & CEO of Habitat for Humanity Canada. "Paul Davis Canada brings not only financial support, but also expertise and a deep commitment to community resilience and sustainable practices. Together, we can help more families build stability, security and a stronger future through affordable homeownership and critical home repairs."
This partnership reflects a shared commitment to strengthening communities, advancing sustainability, and supporting Canadians when they need it most. By leveraging Paul Davis’s national footprint and Habitat for Humanity’s proven model, the collaboration aims to deliver meaningful, measurable impact across the country.
