To commemorate Veterans Day 2023, Owens Corning, Toledo, Ohio, crossed a milestone of providing 500 free roof systems to U.S. veterans.

Launched in 2016, the Owens Corning Roof Deployment Program provides shingles and roof system components at no cost, and Platinum Preferred Contractors, the company’s top tier of independent contractors, donate the labor to install the roofs.

The free roof systems have been installed for veterans in need in 41 states with an estimated value of more than $5 million. More than 300 Owens Corning Platinum Preferred contractors have participated in the program.
