Farmington, CT – KBE Building Corporation (KBE) employees and their families and friends raised money for The Cove Center for Grieving Children through the organization’s annual race on Oct. 18.

KBE has participated in Race for The Cove every year since 2010. This year’s event was held along the picturesque Hammonassett Beach State Park in Madison. KBE’s Senior Management Team donated an amount equal to the total donations and registration fees paid by KBE employees and their loved ones, bringing the firm’s total contribution to $2,330.

“The Cove provides complimentary support to those grieving in our community, and that means that the community has to support The Cove as well,” said Simon F. Etzel, Jr., KBE principal owner and SVP and chairman of The Cove’s board of directors. “The annual race is a healthy and fun way to give back while strengthening our own team in the process.”
