NWFA in Partnership With Sinise Foundation

St. Louis, MO, Feb. 25, 2015 -- The National Wood Flooring Association (NWFA) has announced a new partnership with the Gary Sinise Foundation’s R.I.S.E. program, which builds smart homes for injured veterans.

Sinise, an actor, will speak at NWFA’s Wood Flooring Expo in April to officially launch the partnership.

“Gary’s participation during Expo this year coincides with the event’s ‘Play it Forward’ theme,” said NWFA CEO Michael Martin.

“While we will mark the NWFA’s 30th anniversary during Expo, we also are looking forward as an association and an industry, in business and in how we contribute to society. This collaboration is a significant step.”

NWFA member manufacturers, including American OEM, Mannington Wood Floors, Mullican Flooring, Sheoga Hardwood Flooring, Somerset Hardwood Flooring, and WD Flooring, will provide materials. Distributors and contractors in the communities where homes are being built will also become involved in the process, creating locally based support for building the homes.
