Breaking News: IWF Exhibitor Exclusive

IWF will produce its third annual Woodworking Manufacturing Month October 1–31, 2023 in a national campaign showcasing woodworking innovation and benefiting the Tunnel to Towers mission to house catastrophically injured U.S. veterans and first responders. This enables all Woodworking Manufacturing Month participating manufacturers and service providers to support the Tunnel To Towers cause directly while also promoting the newest innovations in their individual business operations.

In its support of the Tunnel to Towers Foundation, IWF joins global brands—many with deep wood industry ties—such as the Home Depot Foundation, Hunter Douglas, MasterBrand, Glidden, Oldcastle Architectural—plus UPS, GMC and others—in helping the Foundation build mortgage-free homes for seriously wounded U.S. military services veterans and first responders. Tunnel to Towers-funded Smart Homes are designed to address the unique needs of each individual homeowner with a myriad of features ranging from automated doors and lighting to wider halls and doorways, special showers, automatic door openers, cabinets, counters and moving stove tops.
