From Bill Olsen, Elite Building Products Owner:

In the course of business we have always looked forward to helping good causes and charitable work. Rarely, however, have we had the opportunity to provide assistance in the form of our industry experience, merchandise, and capital to a program so connected to our industry. We feel that our participation in TPFH not only allows us do give financially but also provides us the opportunity to be more intimately involved with a cause that relates to our industry.

Elite Building Products:
HFH Pensacola (Florida, July 2004)

Elite Building Products donated thinset and grout to tile more than 900 square feet in the first house TPFH partners tiled in Pensacola, Florida. The homeowner requested tile for the kitchen, bathrooms, entry, hall and bedroom so that her son, a quadriplegic, would have no trouble moving around the new home in his motorized wheelchair. Crossville donated tile for the project and Perdido Home Tile installed it in early July 2004.


 
Glenn Prehn of Pensacola-area Perdido Home Tile, Kim Snooks and Phyllis Clayton of Pensacola Habitat for Humanity, and Ally Fertitta of TPFH visit in the Mitchell kitchen, which Perdido Home tiled with Elite thinset and grout.   Elite Building Products donated thinset and grout to help install tile donated by Crossville
     
 
The Mitchell family stands in their newly-tiled kitchen in Pensacola, Florida.   Perdido Home Tile used Elite thinset and grout to tile the Mitchell home.
