  Building with Habitat for Humanity

Raised Floor Living partnered with Habitat for Humanity to build four homes -- two in Mobile, Ala., and two in Vero Beach, Fla. As part of the project, we produced a series of video segments featuring representatives from the Southern Pine Council, APA and Habitat for Humanity talking about building raised floor, wind-resistant homes. Visit the links below for the segments and more information.
