Who says voting doesn’t matter?? Thanks to thousands of people around the country and Louisiana, the New Basin Light House on Lake Pontchartrain will receive a much needed boost! JELD WEN will be donating all of the windows and doors to restore the New Orleans icon which was damaged heavily after Hurricane Katrina. Please read more here.

You can also learn more about the New Basin Light House here.

Thank you, JELD WEN!! New Orleans is deeply appreciative of your faith in our REBUILD.
