Tranont, in partnership with its charitable foundation Lift Where You Live and the nonprofit Project Mercy Baja, paid for and built three homes for families living in poverty in Tijuana, Mexico. Almost 50 Tranont employees, distributors and family members worked for two days to build the homes alongside the recipients.
Recipient families purchased the land while Lift Where You Live provided the building materials. As part of this project, the recipient families will now also volunteer to help build other homes in the area.
“It’s exhausting but so rewarding to see how we are changing daily life for these families,” said Chief Operating Officer and Tranont Owner Russ Losee. “Not only do they finally have a clean, comfortable place to live and raise their children, but they’re also paying it forward. That’s why we do what we do—change life for good through better health and better communities.”
