Beacon of Hope program resumes
Beacon is seeking nominations for its annual Beacon of Hope program. This North American program has been expanded to award new roofs (at no cost) to 12 veteran-owned homes and two community buildings that house organizations serving veterans. This is also the first year that Gold Star Families are welcome as nominees.
Now in its sixth year, the Beacon of Hope program is open to all military veterans in the U.S. and Canada. Together with local roofing companies, Beacon will deliver and fully fund a safe, durable roof for 12 residential winners and two community buildings. The new roof will feature TRI-BUILT products, Beacon’s private label brand, and products from CertainTeed. Since launching the program in 2018, Beacon has installed over 50 roofs for vets in need.
“We proudly stand by our veterans, honoring their service and dedication to our country, which is why it’s our privilege to go further this year by supporting more veterans and including Gold Star Families,” said Jonathan Bennett, Beacon’s chief commercial officer. “We created the Beacon of Hope program to ensure these veterans have a high-quality roof over their heads. We are humbled to partner with local communities and industry partners like CertainTeed to help build a brighter future for veterans and urge the public to honor deserving veterans in their community by nominating them for an opportunity to receive a new roof.”
From August 15 through October 4, 2024, the public can nominate a U.S. or Canadian veteran or Gold Star Family at the Beacon of Hope website or by submitting an email to [email protected]. A panel will select 12 grand-prize residential and two community winners and announce the deserving winners on Veteran’s Day, Monday, November 11.
