Porsche is building more than just cars; the German automaker has dedicated 15 years to constructing homes for vulnerable families across Latin America through its alliance with the organization TECHO.
This social project, which began in 2011, has seen Porsche, its clients, collaborators, and hundreds of volunteers construct 911 homes in 18 countries. A recent initiative in La Quebrada, Tlalpan CDMX, Mexico, involved over 50 volunteers building four progressive homes for families in need. In 2025 alone, 51 new homes were built with the help of 765 volunteers.
The program's milestone of the 911th home, built on August 2, 2026, is a tribute to Porsche's iconic sports car, but more importantly, it signifies a family gaining a home. The partnership extends beyond construction, offering automotive mechanics training to vulnerable youth, with over 70 young people already benefiting from these programs. Porsche and TECHO also provide humanitarian aid, including kits, during natural disasters and emergencies.
This long-standing commitment demonstrates Porsche's dedication to social responsibility, using its brand recognition and resources to make a tangible impact on communities across the region.
Although the number is linked to its most emblematic sports car, on this occasion it represents one more family that now has a home.
