Behind The Smile, TyDy4Tyler Color Run

Some of our staff and their families after the color run.

On Saturday, September 15, 2018, SERVPRO of Anniston, Gadsden and Marshall County sponsored the Behind the Smile Color Run at Rainbow Middle School in Rainbow City, Alabama. This event was the second annual to honor the life of Tyler Martin who, sadly took his own life at the young age of 14. Tyler was known for his love of sports and was well-loved by his family and friends. In order to increase the awareness of teen suicide, the family decided to host this event annually in his memory. Dozens of companies, including SERVPRO Anniston, Gadsden and Marshall County sponsored this event in which all proceeds will be used to spread awareness of the risk of suicide. SERVPRO Anniston, Gadsden and Marshall County showed up not only as a sponsor but in person with 12 of our staff and family members wearing Behind the Smile t-shirts and SMILES to run and/or walk in memory of Tyler. We are proud to support local events and causes in our communities. May our interactions and connections with our customers and community members turn despair into hope for all those we meet.
