GAF Celebrates 125th Anniversary by Giving Back

To celebrate 125 years as a leader in the roofing industry, employees of GAF, a roofing and ventilation manufacturer, will participate in Habitat for Humanity builds across the country.

WAYNE, N.J. – To celebrate 125 years as a leader in the roofing industry, employees of GAF, a roofing and ventilation manufacturer, will participate in Habitat for Humanity builds across the country. On June 22, the company will help build houses in partnership with families in need in New Jersey, Texas, and California. The company is committed to both sustainability and community outreach. Participating in the team builds with Habitat for Humanity not only highlights the company’s dedication to community, but will also serve as an opportunity for employees to contribute personally.

“GAF as a company has been very fortunate. Through the hard work and devotion of our employees, we have managed to stay at the forefront of our industry for 125 years - no small feat for a company, especially given the recent economic climate,” stated Paul Bromfield, senior vice president of marketing at GAF. “This is a great opportunity to help families in need of housing and it also is a chance to give our employees an opportunity to make a positive difference in communities.”

The company recently engaged in a first-of-its kind national alliance with Habitat for Humanity where GAF provides roofing materials for GAF Master Elite and Certified Contractors donating roofing installation services for Habitat homes in their communities. All installed roofs carry GAF’s System Plus ltd. warranty.
