“Our shared ambition for improving the lives of our community and making the world a better home inspired our commitment to impacting future generations through our Sustaining Futures, Raising Communities Program,” said Mark Rayfield, CEO of Saint-Gobain North America and CertainTeed. “We were incredibly moved by the response we received to the program and by the devotion of our educators to help cultivate, influence, and transform young lives by helping transform their learning spaces. We know that environments with better acoustical performance, better lighting and air quality students learn better and achieve greater results.

"It is an honor to congratulate and celebrate our winners, and to donate products that will help create better learning experiences for students across Georgia, Massachusetts, and Pennsylvania where thousands of our employees work, live and raise their families.”
