Inkster – Owens Corning Platinum Contractors are working with Habitat for Humanity Western Wayne County to provide new roofs to veterans in need and their families as part of the Owens Corning Roof Deployment Project.

Kevin Bronson, a U.S. Marine Corp veteran, will receive a new roof on Tuesday, October 9, from Tittle Brothers Construction, an Owens Corning Roofing Platinum Contractor. This nationwide effort is a way to show gratitude and honor the veterans who served our country and the families who support them.

"We participated in the Roof Deployment Project last year and were so grateful to be able to give back in this way that we couldn't wait for another opportunity," said Greg Tittle, Founder and Owner of Tittle Brothers Construction. "When we learned more about Kevin we just knew we had to get involved again and help him out."

Owens Corning Roofing and its network of independent Platinum Contractors, along with support from the Owens Corning Foundation, are donating roofing materials and labor to replace roofing shingles on the homes of military veterans and their families throughout the country. Through a partnership with Habitat for Humanity Western Wayne County, Kevin Bronson was selected and approved as the recipient for the roof replacement.

"We thrive on great partnerships like this," said Alice Dent, Executive Director at Habitat for Humanity Western Wayne County. "It's inspiring to see so many great organizations and local partners come together for Kevin."
