CNA awarded Legacy Restoration with $5,000 for its charity.

The third-place winner was Core Contractors, Roofing Systems, Denver, for its work with The Other Side Academy, a training school that teaches pro-social, vocational and life skills and is available as an alternative for individuals facing long-term incarceration and those seeking change from the life they chose in the past.
