5 Roof Donations to the Community First! Village in 2019!

 

Community First! Village is a 51-acre piece of land owned by Mobile Loaves & Fishes. Mobile Loaves & Fishes is a non-profit organization that has food trucks that drive around every day to give the homeless food, clothing, and hygiene products.

 

Community First! Village has been in the works ever since 2005 and exists to give affordable and permanent housing to people who are disabled and chronically homeless.

 

In phase I of the village, the community built housing over 27 acres and provided shelter to 200 of the formerly homeless.

 

Phase II started in fall of 2018, which was when we came on board. Phase II added 24 more acres of housing, which brought the total homes to 500. That year, we donated 3 roofs, which amounted to $7,800.

 

In 2019, we've given 5 free roofs totaling $20,000 to this project and also installed one roof for Ryan Construction. Austin Roofing and Construction pledges to donate 5 free roofs every year from now on so the community can keep growing and helping the homeless.

 

To assist the residents even further, we provide free roof repairs and maintenance for all the resident roofs in the Community First! Village. This ensures they stay safe, warm, and dry in their new homes for years to come.
