The product contribution to Habitat for Humanity will include Variform^® vinyl siding and Ply Gem^® windows from Cornerstone Building Brands. The products will be used to help repair and rebuild homes impacted by hurricanes Helene and Milton, which caused destructive flooding in Tennessee and Georgia, the home states of Lady A members Hillary Scott, Charles Kelley and Dave Haywood. Through LadyAID, the vocal group works to support numerous initiatives locally, nationally and globally and has a history supporting disaster-relief efforts, including a donation following Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico.

“No matter where we are or where we perform, our roots will always be in Tennessee and Georgia,” said Lady A’s Hillary Scott, a Tennessee native. “It’s been devastating to see the sweeping damage of these super storms and their impact on our friends, family and the communities we call home. We felt compelled to help through LadyAID, and by partnering with Cornerstone Building Brands and Habitat for Humanity, we can support essential rebuilding and recovery.”

Susan Selle, chief marketing officer at Cornerstone Building Brands, said “Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton were historic storms that destroyed homes, businesses and entire neighborhoods across several states including Tennessee and Georgia. Community is the cornerstone of everything we do at Cornerstone Building Brands. We are grateful for the opportunity to work with LadyAID and Habitat for Humanity to provide essential exterior building products that will help rebuild and restore houses to create safe homes for families in need.”

This donation marks another milestone in Cornerstone Building Brands’ partnership with Lady A. Earlier this year, Cornerstone Building Brands named Lady A its Home for Good^® project ambassador to bring more awareness to the affordable housing crisis. Lady A also joined Cornerstone Building Brands at the company’s Home for Good project home renovation in Murfreesboro, Tenn., to provide home renovations and improve the safety and comfort of an elderly couple’s home that needed critical repairs.

“The loss of a home can leave a family at their most vulnerable and place them in the most unimaginable situations,” said Charlita Stephens-Walker, vice president of corporate partnerships and cause marketing at Habitat for Humanity International. “Habitat for Humanity stands ready to help those impacted by the devastation of hurricanes Helene and Milton and walk alongside them on the long road to recovery. We are incredibly grateful for the generosity of Cornerstone Building Brands and LadyAID as we work together to help families rebuild their homes and their lives.”

With its headquarters in North Carolina, Cornerstone Building Brands has additional efforts under way to support residents in the Western part of the state who were devastated by Hurricane Helene. The company hosted a donation drive for hygiene kits and essential items that were delivered to North Carolina hurricane victims. It also launched a three-week company-match giving campaign that is raising funds to support American Red Cross hurricane-relief efforts.
