TAMKO and The Kansas City Chiefs Launch Operation Rooftop - Roof Giveaway Sweepstakes for an American Hero

Operation Rooftop presented by TAMKO

TAMKO Building Products, Proud Partner of the Kansas City Chiefs, announces the launch of Operation Rooftop. Through this new program, a current or former member of the U.S. military will be given a NEW roof. Founded in 1944, TAMKO has an 80-year history of supporting American heroes, and this initiative further reflects the company’s deep commitment to celebrating those who help protect our freedom.

Operation Rooftop combines the winning spirit of four-time world champion Kansas City Chiefs with TAMKO’s top-quality American manufacturing. It aims to honor the selfless dedication and sacrifices made by U.S. service members. Through a sweepstakes one winner will be randomly chosen to have their roof protected with high-performance premium roofing from TAMKO including Titan XT® shingles, renowned for their impact resistance and high wind warranty of up to 160 MPH, and recently voted 2024 Product of the Year by 40,000 consumers, highlighting the TAMKO brand’s quality and consumer trust.

"We are profoundly grateful for the sacrifices made by U.S. military members to protect us” said Alex Hines, Vice President of Sales & Marketing at TAMKO. "Operation Rooftop lets us directly thank these heroes by providing a secure and durable roof over their heads to protect their home. TAMKO is thrilled to partner with the Kansas City Chiefs on this meaningful mission."

TAMKO has long shown a commitment to honoring U.S. military and veterans. About 15% of TAMKO’s workforce are veterans, as the company believes one of the best ways to show dedicated support is by hiring veterans for good paying jobs. TAMKO’s ongoing charitable support can be further seen through the company’s financial and product donations to assist military and veteran-focused nonprofits like Field of Honor, Veterans Airlift Command and Patriot PAWS, just to name a few.

Registration is open for current and former U.S military members to enter for a chance to win a new TAMKO roof through the Kansas City Chief’s Operation Rooftop website.

For the terms and conditions of the sweepstakes please visit the Kansas City Chief’s Operation Rooftop Sweepstakes Rules website.
