From the Organizer
Join us for our SPOOKY 3rd Annual Roofs from The Heart 5K Run/Walk. Wearing a Halloween costume is optional, but there will be an award for best ADULT COSTUME and best YOUTH COSTUME! Please be mindful this is a family event, and there will be children present so please keep costumes appropriate!
Roofs from the Heart provides quality new roofs for those who cannot maintain the basic provision of safe and secure shelter for their family, in order to keep the family healthy, in their home, and in their community.
Your registration allows us to continue our mission of providing roofs to our disadvantaged and underserved community members in need! In 2025, we replaced 11 roofs to families in dire need. Help us increase that number this year!
