TAMKO Building Products and the Kansas City Chiefs have announced the return of Operation Rooftop, a roof giveaway sweepstakes honoring U.S. military service members. The program will provide one current or former military member with a brand-new roof featuring TAMKO's award-winning Titan XT shingles.
The 2025 program follows a successful inaugural year that awarded retired Marine Corps veteran Garron Abernathy of Blue Springs, Mo., with a new roof installation.
"As a Marine Corps veteran, knowing that my home will be safe and secure with this new roof means everything to me and my family," Abernathy said.
This year's winner will receive a roof built with Titan XT shingles, which feature a Class 3 impact rating, superior wind protection up to 160 MPH, and were voted 2024 Product of the Year in the Home Protection Category by 40,000 consumers.
"Together with TAMKO, we're proud to support those who have served our country and give back in a meaningful, lasting way," said Kellen Begnoche, vice president of partnership strategy for the Kansas City Chiefs. "It's an honor to help make a difference in the lives of veterans in our community."
Chris Freeborg, TAMKO's vice president and chief marketing and product development officer and a military veteran himself, emphasized the company's commitment to the veteran community. "The fact that we're able to put veterans first means a lot to me," Freeborg said. "It's a privilege."
TAMKO's dedication to veterans extends beyond the giveaway program. Nearly 15% of the company's nationwide workforce consists of veterans, with an even larger percentage in leadership roles. The company has also supported veteran-centered nonprofits, including Field of Honor, Veterans Airlift Command, and Patriot PAWS.
The sweepstakes runs from July 29 through September 14, 2025, and is open to current and former U.S. military members who are legal residents of Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Entry information and official rules are available on the Kansas City Chiefs' Operation Rooftop website.
