The 4th annual Be A Tool 5k Run (On Small Business Saturday) is being held to help support the growth of the Neighborhood Rehab Project (coined Be A Tool) – which is a non-profit based out of Golden, CO. Our focus is addressing safe, dry, warm, & quality of life issues for homeowners in need. In September of this year over 1,000 volunteers came together in Golden, Arvada & Englewood to help work on projects for folks in need of warm, safe and dry conditions.
Proceeds from this race will go directly toward future projects in 2017 & 2018.
