Eakin Project - N. Portland
***POSTPONED*** 

Mr. Eakin has lived in his 1910 craftsman home for 30 years, after inheriting it from his father. He is 75-years-old, and It's almost all he has left. He's a low-income senior who's trying to make ends meet, and his roof is in terrible shape.  He wants to stay in his home, and we want to help!

A small group of volunteers covered it with a blue tarp last Fall, and this Summer we plan to return in force to replace it.  It's a fairly steep 2-story roof, so we'll be taking all the safety precautions while removing what's there, repairing the framing & plywood, and installing the new roofing.  This will be a big job, and it will be worth it because Mr. Eakin will be able to continue living in his family's home for many years to come!  

Malarkey Roofing Products is donating all of the asphalt roofing materials
Ability Plus Roofing is donating a pro-roofing crew for a 1-day, as well as other materials
