From Jim Dougherty, Vice President of Marketing and Business Development for Crossville, Inc.

“Crossville is a big believer in the work of Habitat for Humanity and we're particularly appreciative of the work of TPFH, which has given our company the opportunity to contribute tile to worthwhile projects throughout the country. Our involvement with TPFH last year produced truly excellent results."

From Keith Moerdyk, Residential Sales Coordinator for Crossville, Inc.

"Crossville has donated tile to several TPFH projects around the country, but this was the first time I had the opportunity to work on one of the homes. The work itself was so enjoyable, I found that the day just flew by. And meeting the homeowners was incredibly uplifting; I was so impressed that many of them came to work on their homes – cleaning up after the contractors and volunteers, painting, doing whatever was needed to get their homes ready."

Crossville:
Habitat for Humanity of Greater Indianapolis Fall Build
(October 2004)

Crossville donated about 4,300 square feet porcelain floor tile to Habitat for Humanity of Greater Indianapolis for its Fall Build in October 2004. Crossville partnered with Louisville Tile, one of its customers, to provide the 8,600 square feet used to tile 24 homes. Keith Moerdyk, residential sales coordinator for Crossville, Inc., worked on a team laying tile in the kitchen, laundry room and bathroom of one home.

 
Crossville donated nearly 4,300 square feet of tile to cover half of the 24-house Indianapolis project. Louisville Tile donated the other half.   Brandon Strait of BAC Local 4 IN-KY sets Crossville tile in the utility room of this Habitat home.
