What is National Roof Over Your Head Day?
National Roof Over Your Head Day was created as a day to be grateful for what you have, starting with the roof over your head. We have many items that we take for granted and do not stop to reflect how grateful we are for having them.
There are those people in our country who do not have the basic items that are essential to everyday life. They may have no roof over their heads, enough food to eat, or clothing to wear. It may be insufficient for those who have those basic needs.
The day reminds us to appreciate what we have. This day is a day to be thankful, following closely after Thanksgiving. So much like Thanksgiving, be thankful for what you do have and always remember that it is a better feeling than worrying about what you do not have.
#roofoveryourheaddayday is a hashtag that should be tracked by everyone
To celebrate, take a few items from a Christmas Giving Tree and make someone's holiday a little more enjoyable. Volunteer at or make a donation to a homeless shelter in your area. Your gift will ensure that someone else has a "roof over their head" tonight. To post on social media, use the hashtag #RoofOverYourHeadDay.
