Company recognized for supporting service members, veterans and communities

EIGHTY FOUR, Pa., May 5, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- 84 Lumber, the nation's largest privately held supplier of building materials, manufactured components and industry-leading services, has been named to Newsweek's America's Most Patriotic Companies 2026 list. The recognition honors 500 employers that put patriotism into action by supporting service members, veterans, and American communities, while demonstrating a strong commitment to ethical standards.

"This recognition is especially meaningful because it reflects the voices of Americans who value service, integrity and commitment to community," said Maggie Hardy, owner and CEO of 84 Lumber. "At 84 Lumber, patriotism isn't just a slogan. It is reflected in how we support our associates, stand behind veterans, service members and their families, and show up for communities when they need us most. We're proud to build and invest in America while supporting the people who make this nation strong."

Supporting those who serve has long been part of 84 Lumber's culture and community commitment. Through a longstanding partnership with the Fisher House Foundation and other philanthropic initiatives, the company has supported military families and veteran-focused organizations, recognized service and sacrifice through community engagement programs, and contributed to initiatives that strengthen local communities across the country, particularly during times of need.

Newsweek's America's Most Patriotic Companies 2026 list is based on a comprehensive study conducted by Plant-A Insights Group, combining research, media monitoring and a nationwide survey of more than 20,000 Americans. Researchers reviewed more than 10,000 U.S.-based companies to identify organizations that support military personnel and veterans through formal programs, discounts and other tangible benefits. From that group, 2,500 companies were selected for additional evaluation through a large-scale national survey.

Survey participants rated companies based on ethical conduct and the degree to which each organization demonstrates patriotism, using a non-partisan definition centered on love, support of, and commitment to the core ideals and values of the United States. Additional research assessed corporate support for communities impacted by natural disasters, drawing on data from the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Corporate Aid Tracker and company announcements. The 500 highest-scoring companies were named to Newsweek's 2026 list.

"For 70 years, 84 Lumber has been built by hardworking Americans who take pride in what they do," Hardy added. "We're honored to be recognized among companies that share a deep respect for service and the values that make this country exceptional."
