The nationwide flooring chain is connecting with the organization to support its home-building efforts around the country.
The new partnership has already resulted in the retailer donating more than $300,000 in flooring, tile and installation materials to over 60 local Habitat affiliates just this year so far, supporting more than 80 communities across the United States. The company said it plans to continue expanding its donations throughout the year, further strengthening its collaboration with Habitat’s network of local affiliates.
“At Floor & Decor, we are deeply committed to building stronger communities, and Habitat for Humanity’s mission aligns seamlessly with our values,” said Tom Taylor, CEO of the company. “This partnership exemplifies our shared commitment to helping communities lay the foundation for a better future. We are honored to work alongside Habitat for Humanity and look forward to making a meaningful difference together across the nation.”
“We are excited to embark on this new partnership with Floor & Decor and are grateful for their support of our mission,” said Charlita Stephens-Walker, vice president of corporate partnerships and cause marketing at Habitat for Humanity International. “Their generosity is helping more families achieve the dream of homeownership and is a shining example of how corporate partnerships can make a lasting difference in their communities.”
Habitat was founded in 1976 as a nonprofit organization dedicated to building affordable housing for those who might not be able to do it themselves. Its most famous volunteers were former president Jimmy Carter and his wife Rosalynn, who began working with it in 1984 and continued right up until they died over the past two years. Floor & Decor was founded 25 years ago and proudly states it embraces “the philosophy that there is no finish line. This commitment to continuous improvement extends to its philanthropic efforts, aimed at improving lives by improving the spaces where people live.”
