About JELD-WEN Reliable Lighthouse Restoration Initiative

In one of the most innovative private-public ventures of its kind, JELD-WEN Windows & Doors has selected a dozen finalists for its nationwide search to find and restore lighthouses in need of repair. These 12 finalists showcase the unique history and design of lighthouses throughout the country that have endured more than a century of harsh weather, often with inadequate funding to properly maintain them.

To help save a lighthouse, the public can show support by voting for the lighthouse finalist most worthy of receiving new windows and doors from JELD-WEN for its restoration efforts. Anyone can cast their ballot by visiting www.jeld-wen.com/lighthouse through September 7, 2008. One person, one vote, and every vote counts. The 2008 JELD-WEN Reliable Lighthouse Restoration Initiative finalists include:

Baltimore Harbor Lighthouse – Maryland
Bodie Island Light Station – North Carolina
Cedar Island Lighthouse – New York
Grand Traverse Lighthouse – Michigan
Grays Harbor Light Station – Washington
New Canal Lighthouse – Louisiana
New Dungeness Light Station – Washington
Pemaquid Point Lighthouse – Maine
Plum Island Station – Wisconsin
Point Arena Lighthouse – California
Rose Island Lighthouse – Rhode Island
Toledo Harbor Lighthouse – Ohio

Share your photos of these finalists with us here.

Public support will help JELD-WEN determine which of the lighthouse finalists will ultimately receive new JELD-WEN windows and doors.
