N. WILKESBORO, N.C. (March 2, 2021) — Window World® is proud to announce that it has been awarded the 2021 Military Friendly® Employer designation for its efforts in creating meaningful career paths for military veterans. Military Friendly® Employers are the ultimate example of organizations that are committed to building long-term economic benefits for the military community.
Across our system of more than 200 locations, Window World is committed to doing everything it can to remind veterans that they are appreciated and supported at home. Window World and its franchisees embrace veterans and their families through its “Window World Military Initiative,” a company-wide pledge to honor and serve America’s veterans, active military and military families.
“We are honored and unspeakably proud to be designated as a Military Friendly® Employer,” says Window World CEO and Chairman Tammy Whitworth. “We hope this further assures veterans and active-duty service members of our utmost respect for those who defend American freedom. It is our mission to prove our commitment to support them every single day.”
Window World is not only devoted to hiring highly skilled members of the military, it is also committed to giving back to them. Through charitable support, home remodels, volunteering and other projects, the Military Initiative is a humble way to say “thank you” to military families who make daily sacrifices to protect the American way of life.
“There’s no action great enough to thank service members and their families for their sacrifices, but we strive each day to show our appreciation,” says Window World Board Member Jamie McBride. “We value the leadership, training, character and discipline that servicemen and women bring to our company and the American workforce.”
The prestigious list provides a comprehensive guide for veterans and their families using data sources through continuously improved methodology, criteria and weightings developed with an independent research firm and proprietary survey information from participating organizations.
