Entries Sought for CNA/NRCA Community Involvement Awards

CNA and NRCA teaming up again this year to honor charitable works by NRCA contractor members through the CNA/NRCA Community Involvement Award. Roofing contractor members are encouraged to submit any charitable project, activity or donation that took place between Jan. 1, 2017 and Dec. 31, 2017 for a chance to win up to $7,500 for their charity. The deadline for entries is Dec. 22.

Any charitable project undertaken by an NRCA contractor member is eligible. Projects, activities or donations do not have to involve roofing work. For example, funds raised for a cause or volunteer work at a children’s hospital would qualify.

According to NRCA, submissions must include an entry form, an in-depth description of the charitable work performed, and a testimonial from the receiving charity explaining how the donation helped its operations. Entries can contain other relevant supporting materials including photos, videos, press clippings, etc.
Members submitting entries are encouraged to create a Dropbox folder containing all materials and email the Dropbox link to Charlotte Norgaard, NRCA’s media relations manager, at [email protected] by close of business Dec. 22.

Entries may also be submitted by mail. All mailed entries must contain the same supporting material as electronic submissions and must be received by Dec. 22. Entries submitted by mail may be sent to Charlotte Norgaard, 10255 W. Higgins Road, Suite 600, Rosemont, IL 60018.

Winners will be acknowledged at NRCA’s Industry Awards Ceremony and Cocktail Reception during NRCA’s 131st Annual Convention in New Orleans. For additional information and this year’s entry form, visit www.nrca.net/roofing/CNA-NRCA-Community-Involvement-Award-722.
