Bliss Roofing participated in four projects supported by the Metro Portland Housing Industry Foundation, d/b/a Home Builders Foundation—a sleeping pod community for veterans, a home for girls escaping sex trafficking, a youth drop-in center and a family shelter—for vulnerable communities experiencing homelessness and housing instability. CNA awarded Bliss Roofing with $7,500 to be presented to Metro Portland Housing Industry Foundation, d/b/a Home Builders Foundation.

The second-place winner was Beck Roofing Corp., Norfolk, Va., for its charitable efforts with ForKids. Beck Roofing provided a full roof system replacement on a ForKids home.

The organization currently helps more than 250 families, including 500 children, in 14 cities and counties in southeastern Virginia. CNA awarded Beck Roofing with $5,000 for its charity.

The third-place winner was Dan Perkins Construction Inc., Ishpeming, Mich., for its work with Bay Cliff Health Camp, which helps children ages 7-17 overcome handicaps and become more independent in a summer camp setting that is fun and challenging. The company replaced the roof of the Arts and Crafts Building of the Bay Cliff Health Camp. CNA awarded Dan Perkins Construction with $2,500 for its charity.
