The Kohler sponsorship spans three years and will provide plumbing products and home standby generators to outfit the injured veterans’ new homes. Products donated through the sponsorship include KOHLER and STERLING brand Americans with Disability Act (ADA)-compliant or universally designed toilets, shower enclosures, baths, bathroom and kitchen sinks, and KOHLER showerheads, handshowers, bathroom faucets and kitchen faucets, as well as several permanently installed automatic home generators from Kohler Power Systems.
