Norton Gives Back To The Masonry Foundation

Words: Dan Kamys

Norton Clipper, one of the Mason Contractors Association of America’s Strategic Partners, has announced a new program to support The Masonry Foundation. A portion of every purchase made by a Mason Contractor Member of the MCAA will go directly to The Masonry Foundation. 

“Since Norton Clipper joined as our Saw Strategic Partner in 2020, they have worked to establish how they can best support the industry. This ‘Norton Gives Back’ program is a promising step forward, and we look forward to seeing what the program can generate,” said Todd Fredrick, the MCAA’s Director of Development.  

Contractors who are interested in taking part in the program should follow three simple steps: first, they should find a local distributor by calling 800.554.8003; next, contractors should purchase any Norton Clipper equipment until December 2022; finally, Proof of Purchase should be emailed to NortonGivesBackToMCAA@saint-gobain.com

“Norton Clipper is honored to partner with the MCAA and help build Masonry Contractors of the future,” said Freddie Montalvo, National Account Manager of Norton Clipper.
