Trent Cotney will help you give back to the roofing industry by matching your donations to this incredible foundation. 

There are a number of organizations throughout the roofing industry that make it their mission to support philanthropic and humanitarian causes as well as invest in the future of roofing through research and education. This holiday season, RCS Influencer and Partner of Adams and Reese LLP, Trent Cotney wants to give back to those foundations that work so hard to make a difference. For the entire month of December, he is matching your donation to one of four foundations across the industry. Help him reach his goal of donating $10,000 ($2,500 per foundation) back to the roofing industry by giving back this season! 

One foundation on Trent’s list is the Chicago Roofing Contractors Association (CRCA) Foundation. Their mission is to advance and support the roofing, construction and waterproofing industry in the Chicago area through the funding and support of philanthropic causes, research and education. The foundation brings together leading contractors, distributors and manufacturers committed to strengthening the future of roofing. 

Since 2000, they’ve provided over $700,000 in scholarship money to assist high school students in their dreams to enter college and work toward a degree in various fields. These scholarships are awarded and renewed based on academic performance, faculty recommendation, employment or extracurricular experience and an interest in a productive career. Additionally, they’ve provided over $120,000 to research in the roofing industry and over $65,000 to philanthropic and disaster relief efforts.  

Trent stands behind this foundation and others in helping current roofing professionals further their careers and make advancements within the industry. His purpose in giving back is to give thanks to a community and profession that has taken care of him, put food on his table and continues to spark his passions. 

Double your giving all month long and support a foundation that furthers the excellence and long-term viability of the roofing industry!
