TV’s ‘Property Brothers,’ join Habitat for Humanity and Nissan to kick off Home is the Key campaign

Drew and Jonathan Scott are raising the walls on two new Nashville homes today as part of the start to Habitat for Humanity's second annual nationwide Home is the Key campaign. The campaign, which runs the month of April, convenes sponsors, celebrities and community leaders to drive support for the critical need of affordable housing across the United States. "We have been longtime supporters of Habitat for Humanity because we know the real meaning of home," said Jonathan Scott, one half of the world-renowned, entrepreneurial construction and real estate expert brothers. "A safe and affordable place to live is the key to building a strong family foundation. The families we're working alongside in Nashville are just two examples of the thousands of people that Habitat serves across the country every year." As profiled on NBC's TODAY Show, the Scott Brothers are working alongside future Habitat homeowners Ashlee and Amanda to build their homes today. Throughout the month, campaign sponsors will engage additional volunteers to help finish the homes by April 26. "Purchasing a home is increasingly out of reach for far too many people across the country," Drew Scott said. "By supporting the #HomeIsTheKey campaign, we can all play a role in building more homes and more opportunities for families." "At Habitat for Humanity, we have long known that home is the key to a better life," said Jonathan Reckford, CEO of Habitat for Humanity International. "For more than 40 years, we have helped more than 13 million people become empowered to build better lives for themselves and their families. But with more than 18 million U.S. families paying more than half their income on housing, it is clear that so much more work needs to be done. Home is the Key is the opportunity for everyone to be part of the solution.
