ECC Roofing & Siding Joins Forces with Owens Corning to Give Back to a Veteran Hero
In a heartwarming gesture roofers, ECC Roofing & Siding recently partnered with the Owens Corning National Roof Deployment Project to provide a brand-new roof for Ronald Dash, a South Jersey veteran who has spent decades serving his country. This initiative took place in Willingboro, New Jersey, and highlighted the company’s commitment to supporting veterans and giving back to the community.
A Life of Service: Meet Ronald Dash
Ronald Dash is no stranger to service. With an impressive military career that includes time in the Marine Corps, Army Reserves, and National Guard, Dash has always been the one offering his help to others. For 36 years, he has called his Willingboro home a sanctuary, but after years of wear and tear, it was clear the roof needed a replacement.
Dash, a Vietnam veteran and Purple Heart recipient, spends his time today as a veterans advocate, constantly working to uplift and assist other veterans. Despite being on the giving end for so long, this time he found himself on the receiving side—an experience he described as truly humbling.
“I am humbled first of all. And then to realize that someone took notice of another veteran and wanted to do something for us — it just humbles me to be able to say thank you,” said Dash, reflecting on the act of kindness.
The National Roof Deployment Project: A Roof Over Their Heads
The Owens Corning National Roof Deployment Project, in collaboration with Habitat for Humanity, has one noble mission: to provide roofing solutions for veterans in need. ECC Roofing & Siding proudly joined this initiative, marking their dedication to giving back to those who have sacrificed so much for the nation.
To date, the National Roof Deployment Project has completed over 350 roofing projects for veterans like Dash across the country. By partnering with Habitat for Humanity, they identify veterans who need help, offering them more than just a roof but also peace of mind.
ECC Roofing & Siding’s Commitment to the Community
ECC Roofing & Siding’s involvement in this project speaks volumes about their commitment to serving their local community. With every roof replacement, they not only deliver high-quality craftsmanship but also bring smiles and relief to homeowners in need.
For Dash, receiving a new roof wasn’t just about the shingles and materials—it was a reminder that people care. “Monday’s act of kindness will continue to motivate me to help even more people,” said Dash, whose work as a veterans advocate remains as strong as ever.
The Impact of Giving Back
Stories like Ronald Dash’s remind us all of the importance of giving back to those who have given so much. While the roof may last for decades, the act of kindness will live on even longer, motivating others in the community to step up and support their neighbors in need.
At ECC Roofing & Siding, this project is a symbol of their ongoing mission to serve. Whether it’s replacing a roof or transforming a home, they’re committed to making a difference, one roof at a time.
