“Helping make a difference in the lives of those less fortunate is such a rewarding experience,” said Tracy Garcia, CEM, director of the IRE. “The International Roofing Expo is pleased to once again partner with Rebuilding Together in the spirit of community service.”

The International Roofing Expo has partnered with Rebuilding Together Southern Nevada, a nonprofit, volunteer-based program that repairs and rehabilitates homes and nonprofit community facilities, as well as NRCA’s Disaster Relief Committee.

Community Service Day is sponsored by Canton, Ma.-based Sika Corporation - Roofing, a leading manufacturer of single-ply vinyl roofing and waterproofing systems known for superior performance with minimal environmental impact, who will be exhibiting in booth #1721.

Skilled and unskilled volunteers are needed to help with the renovations. Skilled volunteers will perform a variety of construction disciplines including roofing, interior/exterior painting, flooring and minor carpentry. Unskilled volunteers will help with set up, cleanup and other miscellaneous projects. Working under the direction of a crew chief, all volunteers must be 18 years of age or older and will be asked to sign a Waiver of Liability Form. 

“This is a great opportunity to support the roofing industry while giving back to the Las Vegas community,” said Bill Good, executive vice president of NRCA, the show’s official sponsor. “I hope to see many of our members participating in this great cause.”

Show participants can register for this event at the same time they register to attend the show at www.theroofingexpo.com. Tax-deductible monetary donations can also be made during registration. There is a $25 fee that includes transportation, beverages and snacks. Lunch is provided by Agawam, Ma.-based OMG Roofing Products, who will be exhibiting in booth #1649. 

The 2014 International Roofing Expo will be held Feb. 26-28 at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas.
