Thanksgiving Food Drive
Best Roofing has always believed that being part of the community was as important as our daily work. We are thankful for another successful year and wanted to share that with the less fortunate. This month we will be hosting a food drive to be able to donate non-perishable foods to The Pantry of Broward. Amongst our office staff we will be collecting goods, and we ask that the community help out as well.

The Pantry of Broward
The Pantry of Broward is a 501(c)3 organization registered with the State of Florida. The Pantry was founded in 2008 by Elizabeth “B.J. Buntrock,” a local philanthropist who saw the need for a charitable organization that could address the unique needs of seniors and grandparents raising their grandchildren on fixed incomes. In addition to providing its 425 clients with a 55-pound box of nutritional foods each month, The Pantry’s clinical director meets with each client to determine their additional needs (and those of the children they are raising) and assist them with applying for and obtaining food stamps (The Pantry is a community access partner for SNAP), government assistance, affordable housing, discounted utilities, transportation assistance and low-cost healthcare services, as needed.

Best Roofing will have a box in the main office of their building 1600 NE 12th Terrace in Fort Lauderdale where you will be able to bring your donations to. On Tuesday November 24th we will be dropping off the donations in order to make it in time for Thanksgiving. This holiday is not only about great food, and great sales, it is also a time to stop and give thanks to what we have in our daily lives that others may not. We give thanks to our wonderful customer base, our employees and community, as without you we would not be where we are today.
