Join us on the fourth! The Alameda 4th of July 5K RACE still has a few spots left! This run benefits the Midway Shelter.
The shelter provides 25 beds for women and children without homes. The Alameda Homeless Network (midwayshelter.org) raises funds to keep the shelter going strong, all year long. Building Futures operates the shelter, providing beds, food, case management, and much more. Community support brings new beginnings to women and children in Alameda! Check out our information table booth at the finish line. Happy July 4th!
