In August of 2017, NPTR shifted from a running club to an official, nonprofit organization. We are driven 100% by volunteers. In order to “keep the lights on” (e.g. pay for insurance, host this website) we must solicit and obtain donations. If/when we manage to accrue surplus funds, members may vote upon a philanthropic endeavor. In the meantime, we continue to host (free) group runs multiple times a week and offer support and camaraderie to our fellow runners!
