Our story…

Support Team Open Your Heart in the Twin Cities 10 Mile and Marathon!

We’re lacing up our running shoes and hitting the pavement to make a difference! Team Open Your Heart is proud to participate in the Twin Cities 10 Mile and Marathon, raising vital funds for Open Your Heart to the Hungry and Homeless. Our mission? To bring hope, food, and shelter to those who need it most.

Why We Run  

Every step we take is a step closer to a world where no one has to face hunger or homelessness. In Minnesota, thousands of individuals and families face unimaginable challenges every day. By supporting our team, you’re helping Open Your Heart provide the critical resources they need to rebuild their lives.

Your Impact  

Your donation goes directly to Open Your Heart to the Hungry and Homeless, funding programs that:

Deliver meals to hungry families.

Provide shelter to individuals experiencing homelessness.

Offer emergency assistance to those in crisis.

Every dollar makes a difference:

$25 can provide a warm meal for a family of four.

$50 can help shelter a person for a night.

$100 can support emergency housing for a family.

Join the Cause  

Help us reach our fundraising goal of $5,000. Together, we can make a real impact in our community. Donate today, share our page, or even join us on race day to cheer us on!

Thank You for Your Support!  We couldn’t do this without you. Every contribution, no matter the size, is a step forward for those in need. Let’s make every mile count for hunger relief and homelessness prevention.
