I think this partnership will help us educate our affiliates across the country to the importance of building a house that is usable by the families and which, by its very nature, will be easy to clean and the families will be able to keep clean at a very minimal expense.

2003 Jimmy Carter Work Project in LaGrange
(Georgia, June 2003)

In addition to furnishing buckets of tile tools and other tile installation equipment, NATTCO Vice President of Sales Keith Haney traveled to LaGrange to donate two days of installation labor. He joined Atlanta-based Don Flynt of Tools Direct, a NATTCO dealer, who donated labor on June 11, 2003.

From Keith Haney, vice president of sales for NATTCO and TI Pro

“I intend to be part of more builds and hope to reach a level of participation of which I can be proud. My goal is to work alongside my kids on a build and help them find the satisfaction that comes from giving of yourself with only a smile as the payoff.”
