Allen explains: “We had this idea to support the community that has stood behind us for the years that we’ve been in business.We teamed up with the Wilmington Blue Rocks – a minor league baseball team. They have a strong following on social media and they did some ad- vertising for us on the radio for this program and announced it at their stadium.We ended up get- ting 400 nominations, and we narrowed it down to three finalists.We put it out on social media for the community to vote on the winner.We told about each individual and why they deserved a new roof and the outpouring of support from the community was enormous and we were really touched by it.We felt that we couldn’t just give one individual the free roof, so we ended up giv- ing all three of them a free roof. It really felt good and the community took to it. So, we try to do it at least once a year.We get our employees and the community involved and it’s really taken off.” The company also partners with Habitat for Hu- manity. “Last year, we were named Donor of the Year,” says Glenn. “It’s been a constant partnership.
