James Hardie is sponsoring the construction of the Habitat for Humanity of Greater Palm Beach County project as part of the countdown to the inaugural James Hardie™ Pro Football Hall of Fame Invitational, a PGA TOUR Champions event featuring the legends of golf and football, that will be hosted in Boca Raton next spring. Habitat for Humanity International is one of three cornerstone charity partners of the new event, including First Tee and Boca Raton Regional Hospital.
“Today is an incredible example of the positive and meaningful impact we plan to make in south Florida communities around this new tournament in service of our purpose, Building a Better Future for All™,” said Sean Gadd, president of James Hardie North America. “And it’s just the beginning – we’re excited to do more alongside the legends of golf and football, as well as with community partners like these amazing students from Seminole Ridge High School.”
The 1,395 square-foot three-bedroom, two-bath ranch home will feature Hardie® siding and trim to help ensure the home can stand the test of time. Zach Thomas, a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame class of 2023, and Brett Quigley, a PGA TOUR Champions player with six professional victories, both of whom are slated to play in the tournament, worked alongside students at Seminole Ridge High School to install the Hardie™ Weather Barrier on the exterior of the modular family home. The new home will be moved and completed next Spring, as the inaugural tournament tees off at the Old Course at Broken Sound.
Students enrolled in the Weitz Construction Academy at Seminole Ridge High School are taught construction techniques in all trades as they build a real house for Habitat for Humanity in the school’s innovative indoor shop, simultaneously teaching them about giving back to their community. The James Hardie sponsored Habitat for Humanity home will be the Academy’s 11th home since the program started in 2005.
The inaugural James Hardie™ Pro Football Hall of Fame Invitational will take place March 31 – April 6, 2025, at the Old Course at Broken Sound in Boca Raton, Florida. The unique tournament will feature a field of 78 PGA TOUR Champions players playing alongside 26 football legends on Friday and Saturday of the event, before a final round featuring only the PGA TOUR Champions players. The three-day tournament will be televised on the Golf Channel, available in 175+ countries via more than 20 broadcast partners.
