because of its commitment to provide unparalleled support to its customers and to connecting with the
Hispanic Community, “We have heard our contractors loud and clear regarding the lack of individuals
with the training or background to work as roofers. This is a win all the way around, the Hispanic
community gets access to a great opportunity to learn a trade and earn a good wage, and our customers
see that we're doing something to address the lack of trained roofing professionals.”
