At REACH, we believe the key to creating healthy communities is enabling all community members, especially those who are struggling with basic needs, to create their own triumphs each day. We work hand-in-hand with many partners throughout the community to achieve our goals. Some of those business partners are featured in these pages. You help to make our work possible – thank you.
Lifetime Windows & Doors
REACH is lucky to count Lifetime Windows & Doors among our partners. The team at Lifetime, headed up by Eric Peterson and Carl Thompson, has sponsored our annual Paint & Repair-a-thon since 2008. Lifetime is a locally-owned and operated window and door installation firm, providing a variety of energy efficient products and equipment.
Our partnership with Lifetime benefits REACH in many ways. Not only have they helped several families by installing more energy efficient windows, but their work supports REACH’s efforts to help Portlanders reduce utility costs and consumption. We’re very excited that Lifetime will again partner with REACH this year at the Paint & Repair-a-thon, installing Solar View windows on an entire house, donating between $8,000 - $10,000 in products and labor! Solar View windows have been pioneered by Lifetime in Oregon. These windows take advantage of passive solar energy released from the sun during the winter months. As we all know, sun in Oregon is a precious commodity.
Another advantage of partnering with Lifetime is their local focus. Started by Eric and Carl in 2005, Lifetime Windows grew out of a lifetime of experience in the construction and glass industries. Best friends since high school, Eric and Carl wanted to start a firm that emphasized strong customer satisfaction values and the use of products that take advantage of our unique climate. They also wanted to give something back. “As we can, we should all give back to our community,” says Eric. “If you can help others, you should do it!”
At REACH, we’re proud to count Lifetime Windows & Doors among our professional partners. Our hats off as well to Milgard Windows & Doors who “introduced” Lifetime to REACH in 2008. Thank you for all of your support!
