| Nevil Eastwood, Director, HFHI Construction and Environmental
Resources Department:
Ceramic tile has been used by many affiliates in the
U.S., particularly in the Southeast region where tile
is typically used in the construction industry for
floor covering. Affiliates would normally buy the product
and have subcontractors install it, adding extra cost
to the house. Through this partnership where affiliates
could access it as a donation and have training on
the installation of it, they could keep the house price
affordable.
HFHI would welcome the tile as it is a durable building
material that will last the lifetime of the house,
which is in line with our mission of building simple,
decent, affordable and long-lasting and durable houses.

Derrick Morris, Director, Product Partners, Corporate
and Foundation Giving:
Simple, decent homes can and should be built with
lasting quality. The collaborative effort of the tile
industry through the Tile Partners for Humanity ensures
just that. This partnership exemplifies how the possibility
of “can” coupled with the power of “will” produces
results. We at Habitat for Humanity International look
forward to an enduring partnership with TPFH and its
industry partners as we join in the battle to eliminate
poverty housing.
