Syracuse Habitat for Humanity is so excited to announce our new, three-year partnership with Equitable in Syracuse!
Equitable, a financial services company with a legacy of helping people look forward with courage, strength, and wisdom, has committed to a three-year partnership with Syracuse Habitat for Humanity.

Stay tuned for more from the Equitable / Syracuse Habitat Partnership!
