Muth & Company Roofing has the pleasure of completing three of the 12 repairs Habitat for Humanity – Mid-Ohio will be completing this week. Muth’s home repairs include two reroofs and one gutter job. Muth is a proud supporter of Habitat MidOhio and we are excited to be a part of their 2018 plan.

E.J. Thomas, President and CEO of Habitat MidOhio, kicks off the 2018 Home Repair Blitz.

Recently, Habitat MidOhio finished a $4.5 million capital raise that will allow them to assist more than 100 families through repairs and new home builds. You see, about eight years ago Habitat shifted their focus from how many homes they could build to how many families they could give a hand up.

Replacing gutters on this home is just one of the projects completed by Muth & Company for the 2018 Home Repair Blitz.

They began focusing on neighborhood revitalization because they found that building a new home in a rundown neighborhood did not truly help the community as a whole. However, by helping entire blocks, they could rebuild communities.

The best example of this came last January when an older lady called and thanked E.J. Thomas, President and CEO of Habitat MidOhio. She explained that for the first time in over 30 years, people on East 15th street decorated their homes for the holidays. For the first time in over 30 years, people showed pride in their homes and their neighborhood.

Over the next three days, Habitat will complete the repair blitz, jumpstarting their 2018 plans to better the lives of over 100 MidOhio families.

Here at Muth, we want our customers to understand why we collaborate with such an impactful organization. That’s why we ask you to stay tuned in the upcoming weeks to learn more about Habitat for Humanity MidOhio and the work they do in our backyard: what they do, how they do it and how you can help your neighbors too!
