Habitat for Humanity Partnership

Many of us at Totten Tubes know families who lost their homes in the Eaton Canyon fire in Altadena. Supporting these families as they rebuild has become the philanthropic focus of Totten Tubes for 2025.  For further reference, see the news stories below.

Partner with Habitat for Humanity and Totten Tubes

One of our key partners in this effort to help the famlies affected by the Altadena fires is Habitat for Humanity, whose mission is to assist low-income and under-insured families in rebuilding their homes. Habitat has set an ambitious goal: to help 150 families rebuild over the next five years. To streamline the process, they’ve created a 1,400-square-foot home design with four façade options that honor the historic character of the homes lost.

A vital component to improving construction efficiency is the Simpson Strong-Tie EZ Frame Saw. Habitat has received a discounted quote of $204,000 (retail value: $300,000), but donor support is needed to make this purchase possible. This computer-guided saw minimizes material waste, ensures precise cuts, and significantly reduces framing time. It’s estimated to save approximately $8,000 per home.

Totten Tubes Pledged $50,000 in Matching Donations This Summer

To support this important tool, Totten Tubes pledged a $50,000 matching donation to encourage others to give. For example, if your company donates $5,000, we will match it—doubling the impact of your contribution.

UPDATE:  $75,000 Was Raised for Habitat for Humanity This Summer!

Our fundraiser ended on July 31, 2025.  Together, with our customers and vendor partners, we raised more than $75,000 to help Habitat for Humanity with the purchase of the Simpson Strong-Tie EZ Frame Saw.  We were honored with the "Roof Raiser" award at "Raising the Roof: A Record-Breaking Gala Celebration" for Habitat for Humanity.   Our Totten Tubes team is pictured here with Master of Ceremonies for the night, John Stamos.
