Straight Line Roofing & Construction Wins 2016 CNA/NRCA Community Involvement Award

In recognition of its efforts to help disadvantaged members of its community meet basic nutritional needs, Straight Line Roofing & Construction, Shingle Springs, Calif., has been presented with the fourth annual CNA/NRCA Community Involvement Award, which is sponsored by the National Roofing Contractors Association, Rosemont, Ill., and CNA, Chicago.

The award honors charitable works performed by NRCA contractor members.

Straight Line Roofing & Construction was selected because of its $16,330 donation to support the Food Bank of El Dorado County. Straight Line Roofing & Construction’s contribution came from hosting its Ninth Annual Thanks & Giving Customer Appreciation Event. During its 10-year involvement with the charity, Straight Line Roofing & Construction has replaced the facility’s roof system and raised more than $70,000 to help feed at-risk individuals.

“I just feel, as contractors, it’s our obligation to thank the customers that have blessed us so much,” said Jack Borba, owner of Straight Line Roofing & Construction, in a video acknowl- edging the award.

CNA awarded Straight Line Roofing & Construction with $5,000 for assisting the food bank, which partners with more than 40 local emergency food response agency sites.

Additionally, this year’s honorable mentions each received $1,000 from CNA; they are 7 Summits Roofing, Colorado Springs, Colo., for hosting the Brandon Schwartz Memorial Tournament; Aspenmark Roofing & Solar, Dallas, for its non-profit organization Roof Angels; and Jonesboro Roofing Co. Inc., Jonesboro, Ark., for its work with St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

The awards were presented during NRCA’s Awards Ceremony and Cocktail Reception held during NRCA’s 129th Annual Convention this past February.
