7 Homes in Louisiana Repaired with Roofing Materials from OGT

OGT purchased a load of roofing materials that will roof 7 homes in Louisiana. These are for families that had damage from Hurricane Ida with no insurance or FEMA was denied. We are working with a local lumber yard and with Toi Carter, who organizes volunteer groups to roof the homes. Thank you, OGT supporters that make it possible to help our neighbors in Louisiana.
