International Design Guild Donates Over $98,000 of Product to Habitat for Humanity in Atlanta, GA
Manchester, NH (March 8, 2009)—Tough economic times have challenged many individuals across the U.S. and the world. Times have been particularly challenging for non-profits who rely heavily on donations to keep operations going. Recently International Design Guild had the opportunity to support Habitat for Humanity in the Atlanta, Georgia area, with a donation of over 37,044 square feet from one of their exclusive Dabbieri product lines. Habitat’s focus is to create housing opportunities so that families can have safe, decent and affordable homes. The donation was valued at $98,752 and the product has already been used in homes being built throughout Georgia.
Krista Eliason, President of International Design Guild, was thrilled to have been involved in the coordination of this opportunity between Guild Members and Habitat for Humanity. “Habitat is such a valuable and worthwhile organization that helps so many families in the greater Atlanta area. Being able to make this type of donation is incredibly rewarding and humbling for all of us, especially when you think of the positive impact it will have on so many”.
While business may be more challenged in 2009, International Design Guild will continue to seek new ways to support both its members and the community at large. “It’s never been more important to remember that we are all part of a larger, global community and by supporting one another we will make it through this challenging time”, said Eliason.
International Design Guild and their affiliated member showrooms are known for providing exquisite flooring to the luxury market. They offer a particularly wide range of wool carpets, decorative and specialty products, including hard surfaces.
