Brown Roofing salesman, Michael Goldberg had a vision. That vision was to assist families in need by providing them with a safe, dry home. In 2021, Michael shared that vision with our owner Eddie Griffin. Roofing for Humanity was born, providing one roof a year to a family in need and despite their own circumstances has given back to their community. Unfortunately, Michael was unable to see his vision become a reality as he passed in late 2021. Eddie carried on with Michael's vision and we installed our first roof to a deserving family in February of 2022, our second in June of 2023.

As in the beginning Michael's family is involved, pouring through nominations to choose each year's recipient. Roofing for Humanity has quickly become a celebration of Michael's life as the entire company turns out for the event. Each year the event solidifies Eddie's attitude of making "giving back a part of our culture".

Nominations for 2024 are now open. If you know of a deserving family in Fairfield, Litchfield or New Haven County that is in need of a new roof and is a true pillar of their community, please fill out the form below. Please provide as much detail regarding the family, the condition of their roof and community service. All information provided about the nominee will be kept in strict confidence and not shared with anyone. Nominations will close April 15, 2024. Each nomination will be reviewed by our selection committee with the final decision to be made by The Goldberg Family and Eddie Griffin.

Upon selection, the family will be notified by Eddie Griffin to schedule an interview and inspection with installation to follow shortly thereafter. Then the troops arrive and in one day the family will have a safe, dry home.
