James Mitchell, a 90-year-old with a heart condition, and his
wife, 88-year-old Christine, have resided in their home for more
than 25 years. They applied to Habitat for Humanity’s Critical Home
Repair program to address modification and maintenance issues.
Cornerstone Building Brands’ Home for Good project supports this
effort to provide homeowners with health and safety-minded home
repairs, which is critical, yet often unaffordable, for many people
like the Mitchells. Older Americans are one of the fastest-growing
demographics in the country. By 2030, 20 percent of the U.S.
population will be 65 or older. Yet, more than 19 million older
adults are living in homes that are in disrepair or ill-equipped to
safely meet their needs.
“We were happy to help remodel their home and enhance its curb
appeal with new Mastic® siding and energy-efficient Simonton®
windows,” said Susan Selle, Chief Marketing Officer of Cornerstone
Building Brands who was an onsite volunteer. “This repair work and
the Home for Good project, represents our continued commitment to
ensuring communities have safe and well-maintained homes. We were
so excited Lady A joined us not only to lend a hand but also to
raise awareness and deliver greater impact through their roles as
ambassadors.”
“It was really special to be onsite to be able to see first-hand
the wonderful work Cornerstone Building Brands’ employees and
Habitat for Humanity are doing to help support families like the
Mitchells,” said Lady A’s Hillary Scott. “We’re honored to be a
small part of making the dream of having a safe home a reality for
everyone.”
In partnership with global nonprofit Habitat for Humanity,
Cornerstone Building Brands established its Home for Good project
initiative in 2016 as part of its commitment to donate building
products, facilitate home builds and spearhead volunteer efforts to
promote affordable housing across North America. Donated building
products include Mastic vinyl siding; Simonton and Ply Gem windows;
and Ply Gem® exterior accessories. So far this year, the Home for
Good project already has contributed to 60 home builds and donated
more than $450,000 in product value. It is expected to support
approximately 100 Habitat for Humanity builds and remodels through
the end of 2024. Habitat for Humanity relies on the quality,
affordability and ease of installation of Cornerstone Building
Brands’ donated vinyl siding, windows, metal roofing and
accessories to build and repair houses in partnership with families
in need of safe and affordable housing.
To date, Cornerstone Building Brands has donated more than $3.4
million in products and resources to help build or remodel more
than 720 homes in 135 communities. Partnering with country music
stars who serve as Home for Good project ambassadors serves to
spotlight and amplify the project’s cause and mission.
