Amanda and her family have always been the kind of people who put others first. They have opened their home to people facing difficult times, helped friends and neighbors when they needed support, and created a safe place for those working to get back on their feet.

Now, their family needs that same support.

Their aging, extremely steep roof is leaking badly, allowing water into the attic and three of their children’s bedrooms. The damage has caused ceilings to deteriorate and mold to develop, leaving parts of their home unusable. With children living in the home, the family is concerned about the situation becoming even worse. For now, a tarp is helping keep some of the water out.

The family works hard to maintain their older home, but the cost and difficulty of replacing such a steep, high roof are beyond what they can manage.

After years of opening their home and hearts to others, a new roof would give Amanda and her family something incredibly important in return: a safe, dry home and peace of mind when the next storm arrives.

She has spent many years in the little house she calls home, but time has taken its toll on the exterior. The home still has its original siding, which has deteriorated over the years and is now falling apart in several areas.

As a lung cancer survivor living on a fixed income, replacing the siding is simply more than she can afford. She has overcome so much, and while she takes pride in her home, she does not have the financial resources needed to make such a significant improvement.

New siding would do more than improve the appearance of her house. It would help protect the home she loves from the elements while giving it the care and attention it desperately needs.

After everything she has been through, this would be an opportunity to give her something special—a home she can once again feel proud of every time she pulls into the driveway.

After years of hard work and sacrifice, this family purchased their first home in 2000. Dad was always the handyman—a talented marine technician who could rebuild an engine, repair a boat, and fix nearly anything around the house.

Over the last five years, his health declined as he battled serious respiratory issues. His daughter became a nurse and helped care for him throughout his illness, but sadly, he passed away just one month ago after years of struggling with respiratory failure.

Now, while grieving the loss of their husband and father, the family is also facing a major repair to the home he worked so hard to maintain. The roof has developed multiple leaks and has already been tarred twice in an effort to keep water out. Without him there to make the repairs and with the cost of replacement beyond what the family can manage, they are unsure where to turn.

A new roof would provide more than protection from the elements. It would lift a tremendous burden from a grieving family and help preserve the home he spent so many years caring for and making their own.

This sweet homeowner is in need of a helping hand. Her home has an aging roof that has sustained wind damage and is now actively leaking. Despite the damage, her insurance company will not approve the repairs, leaving her responsible for the full cost of replacement.

Unfortunately, she does not have the financial resources to pay for a new roof out of pocket. The ongoing leaks put her home at risk of further damage and have created a burden she simply cannot manage on her own.

A new roof through Covers 4 Others would provide her with the safety, security, and peace of mind she deserves. This nomination is an opportunity to help a homeowner in need and give her one less worry to carry.

This multigenerational family home is a beautiful Victorian property dating back to the mid-1800s, but its aging roof has been in disrepair for years. After several financial hardships, the family has never been able to afford the necessary repairs. Storms and fallen trees have caused significant damage, leaving the roof with multiple leaks and buckets needed throughout the home whenever it rains. The ongoing moisture has also led to water damage and mold.

The family’s greatest loss came in April 2024, when Edward Lee Meacham passed away unexpectedly. Edward had been the one with the knowledge and skills to care for and repair the home. His passing left his wife, whom he had been married to since 1969, without her lifelong partner and the family without someone who had helped maintain their treasured home.

A new roof would help preserve this historic family property and protect it from further damage. This nomination would mean giving the family a chance to restore the home that has been cherished across generations and provide them with much-needed peace of mind.

Greg has dedicated his career to serving and protecting his community as a Cleveland City police officer. As he prepares for retirement, he continues to be a respected and admired member of the community, known for his commitment to helping others and making a positive impact.

After a recent hailstorm caused significant damage to his roof, Greg found himself facing an unexpected financial burden. Due to the circumstances surrounding his homeowners insurance policy and other financial challenges, replacing his roof is simply not an option.

Despite these difficulties, Greg remains committed to serving his community with integrity and compassion. A new roof would provide him with much-needed peace of mind as he enters retirement and allow the community to give back to someone who has spent his career looking out for others.

Sandy is a disabled military veteran who has dedicated her life to serving others. As she continues to navigate the challenges of living with PTSD, she remains resilient while doing her best to maintain her home and move forward.

Sandy’s aging roof has reached the end of its lifespan and is in need of replacement. With limited resources and no ability to take on the cost of a new roof, this necessary repair has become an overwhelming financial burden.

A new roof would provide Sandy with more than just protection for her home—it would bring comfort, security, and peace of mind. This nomination is an opportunity to show appreciation for a veteran who has sacrificed for others and provide her with the support she deserves.

Susan is my sister in law.  She is 72 years old and lost her husband ( my brother ), in August of 2025.  She is still working a full time job due to the fact the she still owes a mortgage and is trying to pay off new windows and doors, (22 windows ) that they put in the two years ago.  She needs a new roof, but is unable to afford one.  A new roof would be greatly appreciated.  Thank you for the opportunity for Susan to be entered for a chance to receive a new roof.

Theresa is a hardworking single mother and grandmother who has continued to do everything she can to provide for her family. She has been nominated for a free roof in the past but was never selected. Thankfully, her roof has since been replaced, but her home is still in need of new siding.

The existing siding has become another major home repair that Theresa cannot comfortably afford on her own. As a single mother and grandmother, her resources are focused on supporting her family and keeping up with everyday expenses.

New siding would help protect her property from the elements, improve its condition, and give Theresa greater peace of mind. After previously being nominated for a roof, she is grateful for the opportunity to be considered again, this time for siding.

This nomination is a chance to give Theresa a helping hand and help her continue providing a safe, well-maintained home for the people she loves.
