Katelyn Lewis • August 28, 2024

Do you know a veteran who could benefit from a new, free roof?

If so, we’d love for you to check out our new program, Roof for a Vet!


For a second year running, we’re working with Owens Corning to provide a free roof for a local veteran in need. But we need your help in finding someone who could benefit from this program. 


We are collecting nominations from now until September 30, with the hope of installing a new roof for a local veteran on Veterans’ Day, November 11. 


If you or someone you know is a veteran who could use a new roof, please learn more about our Roof for a Vet program by clicking the button below and submit a nomination today. 


Thanks in advance for your help!
