The final deadline to fill out your application for a chance to be awarded free flooring through J+J Flooring’s Impact Project is Sept. 25.
Up to 10 projects will be awarded 5,000 square feet of flooring as well as free installation through the program that aims to improve environments for seniors in underserved communities. Environments for Aging magazine is serving as media partner for the Impact Project.
Eligible projects include those for nonprofit organizations that provide housing, residential care, or day services to seniors in underserved communities. Design professionals are encouraged to submit nominations on behalf of their clients by visiting jjflooring.com/impact.
Designers and/or providers already working on a project with a restricted budget can use this opportunity to upgrade their design scheme and make a bigger impact for residents. Design firms can also reach out to existing day service centers, housing, or residential care facilities in their communities and offer to help give a fresh look to their common spaces.
Any product in J+J Flooring’s line of carpet, LVT, or Kinetex textile composite flooring may be used. The projects in the U.S. and Canada will be reviewed by an independent advisory panel based on need and statement of purpose. The panelists are:
- Hillary DeGroff, senior associate, Perkins Eastman, Chicago
- Kelley Hoffman, partner, interior designer, RDG Planning & Design, St. Louis, Mo.
- Rob Simonetti, project architect, SWBR Architects, Rochester, N.Y.
