The Roofing Alliance is celebrating its 30th anniversary, marking three decades of advancing the roofing industry through education, research, philanthropy and workforce development. Serving as the foundation for the roofing industry, the Roofing Alliance brings together forward thinking leaders committed to shaping the future of the industry. 

Through strategic investments and collaborative initiatives, the organization has helped address critical challenges, elevate professionalism, and create lasting opportunities across the roofing sector.Since it’s founding in 1996, the Roofing Alliance has funded millions of dollars in impactful programs, including university partnerships, student scholarships, groundbreaking research, and national workforce development initiatives designed to strengthen and sustain the industry.

“The Roofing Alliance was founded on a simple but powerful mission: to secure the future excellence of the roofing industry,” said Alison L. LaValley, Executive Director of the Roofing Alliance. “For 30 years, our members have demonstrated an unwavering commitment to that mission—investing in education, advancing innovation, and giving back to the communities we serve. As we look ahead, we remain focused on building a stronger, more resilient industry for generations to come.”

As part of this milestone, the Roofing Alliance also recognizes its 2026-27 president, Sherri Miles, J.D. Miles and Sons, Chesapeake, VA, whose leadership will help guide the organization in the year ahead.“It’s an honor to lead the Roofing Alliance at such a meaningful moment in its history,” said Miles. “For three decades, this organization has made a lasting difference—not only within the roofing industry, but in communities across the country. 

From supporting students and schools to advancing critical research and workforce initiatives, the Roofing Alliance continues to demonstrate the power of collaboration and commitment to doing good.”

As part of its 30th anniversary milestone, the Roofing Alliance will highlight the members, partners, and programs that have defined its legacy, including  current president Greg Hudson, Duro-Last Roofing, Saginaw, MI, whose steadfast commitment to the Roofing Alliance’s mission has helped strengthen and advance the foundation for decades to come. The future has never looked brighter.
