What if just $100 per month donation could help shape the future of flooring installation?

In the latest FloorDaily.net podcast, Piet Dossche, CEO of Dossche Holdings, and Don Roberts, CEO of Central Alabama Flooring, discuss FCEF’s mission to address the installer shortage and build a stronger pipeline of skilled professionals.

For dealers and retailers, it can start with something simple: $100 per month per location.

That small investment can make a meaningful impact—supporting installer training, developing skilled professionals, and strengthening the workforce our industry depends on.

When the industry comes together, small contributions can create lasting change.
