“MaxLite is proud to support our local Habitat for Humanity and encourage consumers to embrace quality, energy-efficient lighting,” said President and CEO Yon Sung. “Our utility solutions team does a tremendous job of working with utilities and their rebate programs to provide lamps and lighting fixtures for sale through Habitat for Humanity ReStores that help save customers energy and maintenance costs.” “We are really excited about this donation of great products from MaxLite in Anaheim,” said Robyn Willis, director of retail operations, Habitat for Humanity of Orange County. “It is only through donations like this that we can keep our two Habitat ReStores stocked with great merchandise for families looking for bargain prices on home improvement items. This donation fits perfectly into our recycle, reuse philosophy. Proceeds from the sale of these attractive products will help us fulfill our mission of building more affordable Habitat for Humanity homes in Orange County.” MaxLite also participated in Habitat for Humanity’s Home Builders Blitz this year by donating $180,000 in ENERGY STAR-qualified products for 300 homes that were built in June.
