JACKSONVILLE, Florida - The Pineapple Corporation recently received a 2007 Good Neighbor Award from Jacksonville Homebuyer magazine and the Northeast Florida Builders Association for its volunteer and charitable endeavors in the community.

Each year, a select group of local builders who make a difference in their community through charitable and volunteer endeavors are honored with a Good Neighbor Award.

The Pineapple Corporation and other honorees of the 2007 Good Neighbor award will be profiled in Jacksonville Homebuyer and Bildor News.
