Alpine Carpet One recognized for helping vets


Paul Friederici, owner of at Alpine Carpet One in South Lake Tahoe, is being honored on Veterans Day by the Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation, an organization begun in memory of a fallen Sept. 11 firefighter.

Building for America’s Bravest program builds hi-tech “smart homes” for service members returning from war who have been catastrophically injured.

Alpine Carpet One has committed to providing flooring materials and installation for some of these “smart homes.” Carpet One Floor & Home, parent company of the South Lake Tahoe store, has provided materials for 46 homes. The goal is to collect a donation of $10—or more—from each customer, to ultimately build at least two more “smart homes.”

 

Members of the Fire Department of New York City — acting on their own initiative, as ambassadors of the Tunnel to Towers Foundation—will present a specially-designed shadowbox containing hallowed 9/11 steel from Ground Zero to Alpine Carpet One.

    Gee linda, wasnt meant to be rude, only stating the obvious. Kubby uses every chance he gets to advertise his business at the expense of honoring veterans today. To me that is whats rude IMHO

    Sorry nature, but I have to agree with you on this one. He always has to throw in his agenda, though meant well, the timing is not always good.
