My Story…
I’m excited to be part of the Hennepin Healthcare Foundation team for this year’s Twin Cities Marathon Weekend!
My connection to this cause is personal—I have worked at Hennepin Healthcare for nearly 20 years and have seen the incredible impact this organization has on our community. As Minnesota’s largest safety-net hospital, Hennepin Healthcare provides care to everyone who needs it—no matter their ability to pay.
I’m raising funds for the Foundation’s Annual Fund, which helps bridge the gap when insurance isn’t enough. Your support provides emergency prescriptions, transportation for patients, music and art therapy, warm clothes, nourishing meals, and even a place for families to stay close during treatment. Every gift helps break down barriers to care, improves the patient and family experience, and advances medical education, clinical research, and community health.
To do my part, I’ve signed up for the TC 10 Mile. It won’t be fast, and it definitely won’t be pretty—but it’s one small way I can give back to a cause I care about deeply. Especially in these challenging times, every dollar truly makes a difference.
With gratitude,
Jen
Description
Hennepin Healthcare Foundation dedicates itself to the great purpose of healing and enriching life in our community. We do not do this alone, but through the partnership of thousands of people who give in different ways, driven to support an organization that offers exceptional healthcare without exception. Our unique position of being Minnesota's largest level one trauma center, safety net, and public teaching hospital offers innovative ways to influence the health of our community. Most people don't realize that Hennepin County funding for Hennepin Healthcare accounts for less than 3% of its annual budget, providing numerous opportunities for philanthropy to make an impact. Generosity removes barriers to healthcare access, enhances the patient and family experience, and advances efforts in medical education, clinical research, and community health.
Hennepin Healthcare Foundation was established in 2009, as a tax exempt, nonprofit organization governed by a Board of Directors. We are listed on GuideStar.
