FINDANYFLOOR.COM® AND CHARITIES
FindAnyFloor.com founder and CEO Damien Patton is a firm believer in helping those less fortunate. He encourages all of
his employees in this regard and leads by example. FOX Sports Radio 920AM (for which Damien does his "Speed Beat" program

in is one way the FindAnyFloor.com team follows their boss' lead.
Several Charities FindAnyFloor.com is involved in
FindAnyFloor.com is also committed to making the Internet more accessible to people with disabilities. His initial
inspiration to
work in this area came from Glenda Watson Hyatt, a woman who has had cerebral palsy from birth. The pair met at a blogging
convention in Las Vegas, where Damien purchased, and immediately read, Glenda's inspirational book I'll Do It Myself.
FindAnyFloor.com is committed to doing more charity work over the coming months and years and to taking the lead in seeing
businesses make their websites fully accessible to people with disabilities.
