Independent Roofing is Matching Your Gift!

When it comes to having a true cheerleader in your corner, there’s no one better than Independent Roofing. The Omaha-based residential and commercial roofing company has been a supporter and friend of Omaha Home for Boys for nearly 50 years, and they are continuing their support in a special way during Do Good Days. 

Independent Roofing will be matching your gift to OHB dollar-for-dollar up to $10,000 total when you give during Do Good Days, the metro area’s community-wide giving event taking place May 17 to 19. 

“I see the good things that OHB strives to do for the young people in the Omaha area,” said Bob Swanda, President at Independent Roofing. “I see OHB reaching out to young adults and helping them grow and realize they can be part of the bigger picture of our world today. To me, that goes a long way toward solving the issues that affect our country as a whole today.”  

Bob also shared that he encourages employees at Independent Roofing to give back to the community whenever possible. That’s why he’s leading by example and offering a $10,000 matching gift during Do Good Days. 

“Do Good Days is a community-wide initiative that encourages people to give to a charity that speaks to their heart,” said Kelsey Ridder, Senior Director of Development at OHB. “When Independent Roofing offered to match gifts during Do Good Days, we were absolutely thrilled, humbled and very thankful. There really is no better time to give than during Do Good Days when your gift will literally double.” 

Funds raised during Do Good Days will be used to “welcome home” young adults and families who are just entering one of our programs. Your support provides items, such as bedding, towels, laundry supplies, pillows, and cleaning supplies, helping new clients feel safe, comfortable and, most importantly, loved as they begin their journey at Omaha Home for Boys.
