The mission of A Hole in the Roof Foundation is to help faith and relief groups of every denomination who care for the homeless andor victims of disasters. A Hole in the Roof aims to help build or provide funds to repair the spaces in which they offer services. The roots of the Foundation which also inspired its name is the I Am My Brothers Keeper church in Detroit MI written about by the Foundations founder and president Mitch Albom in his book Have a Little Faith. Here despite a gaping hole in the roof through which rain and snow fell on the congregation the pastor tended to his community providing spiritual nourishment and a sanctuary for the needy.
