NEW ORLEANS — In recognition of its efforts to help abandoned and neglected animals, St. Louis-based Delta Exteriors has been presented with the third annual CNA/NRCA Community Involvement Award sponsored by the National Roofing Contractors Association (NRCA) and CNA. The award honors charitable works performed by NRCA contractor members.

Delta Exteriors was selected for its $10,000 donation to support Stray Rescue of St. Louis. The donation will go directly to the shelter's Stacks Fund, the shelter's emergency medical fund. Because a majority of animals rescued require emergency medical care, this fund was created to specifically cover those medical costs.

In addition to the monetary donation to Stray Rescue of St. Louis, Delta Exteriors created a campaign that noted for every roof completed, Delta Exteriors would pay for the adoption process of an animal.

CNA awarded Delta Exteriors with $5,000 for the Stray Rescue of St. Louis. View the video highlighting Stray Rescue of St. Louis at www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOmXwIJQedg.

Additionally, this year's honorable mentions each received $1,000 from CNA; they are Cole Roofing, Baltimore, for its work with the Carson Scholars Fund Inc. and Four Seasons Roofing, East Farmingdale, N.Y., for its work with Nourish the Children, an initiative of NuSkin Enterprises.

The awards were presented on Feb. 25 at NRCA's Awards Ceremony and Cocktail Reception held during NRCA's 128th Annual Convention in New Orleans.
