Storm Smart’s June “We Care” Recipient
Storm Smart is proud to announce the winner of our June “We Care” Program!
Virginia Grafton is a widow who lives on Pine Island. Virginia recently ordered a full set of storm shutters for her home from another company. The company turned out to be unreliable and took Virginia’s money without providing the storm shutters as promised.
Storm Smart saw the story on Wink News and Storm Smart felt that we could do something to help Virginia and educate the public about finding reliable businesses. Storm Smart replaced Virginia’s shutters and we also spoke a bit on Wink News about the dangers of doing business with an unrecognized business in this economy. Storm Smart’s intention is to help others avoid this situation in the future and help Virginia.
Brian Rist, Owner of Storm Smart Industries, made a personal visit to meet Virginia along with the installation crew. Virginia was grateful and commented, “Thank you for helping me, I had no idea what I was going to do about protecting my home after my money had been stolen.” Rist recommended in these types of situations to, “be sure to always check and make sure that they are a reputable business, you can look online, the Better Business Bureau and get references,” he said, “ I also recommend to go with a company that has been in business for a long time that you trust!”
Virginia’s shutters were recently installed on her home and we look forward to helping our July We Care recipient next month!
