UNICEF is supporting health, nutrition, safe drinking water, sanitation and protection for children and families caught in the conflict in Ukraine.

MSF is conducting a range of activities in Ukraine to help people travel to health care facilities and access prescribed medications.

The Switzerland-based international organization seeks to help people affected by the conflict and support the work of the Ukrainian Red Cross.

The London-based organization helps deliver essential humanitarian aid to vulnerable children in Ukraine and around the world.

The international organization is providing emergency assistance to families in Ukraine, including cash assistance and opportunities for resettlement.

On Top of Roofing - Continuing Education Opportunity
Roofing System Solutions and the GAF / Siplast Building & Roofing Science Group would like to invite you to attend the “On Top of Roofing” event on March 30th in Oklahoma City. This is a 6-hour CEU/HSW program (7 hour if you stay for the hands-on portion at the end of the program). We will discuss crucial topics with industry experts during this live, in-person event. Throughout the day, topics will include:

Looking up: A Short (Roofing) History
From Twigs to TPO, we’ll look at the evolution of roofing, consider the pros and cons, and how this has shaped the modern-day roof. 

No Time Like the Present
Consider the advantages of current technology, understand the latest Code requirements, and learn about design options for high-performance roofs. Discuss options for roof-to-wall integration to help meet energy efficiency and risk-mitigation goals. 

Collaborative Roof Design Simulations
Collaborate as teams to evaluate design options by exploring low-slope roof system selection through interactive scenarios. High-performance design will meet value engineering and cost cutting challenges! 

Welcome to the Roofuture
Understand how high-performance roof design relates to sustainability. Develop an approach to guide clients through life-cycle considerations and designing for the future. 

Adventures in Roofing
Participate in a hands-on experience to learn how design and installation of design details can impact the functionality of a roof.
