My Story…
This fall, I’ll be running the Twin Cities Marathon to raise money for the Hennepin Healthcare Foundation—an organization that means so much to me, both personally and professionally.
Through my work at Hennepin Healthcare, I’ve seen firsthand the impact this organization has on our community. As Minnesota’s largest safety-net hospital, it provides care to patients regardless of their ability to pay—and the Foundation helps make that care more accessible, equitable, and compassionate.
I’m raising funds for the Annual Fund, which fills in the gaps that insurance doesn’t cover. This includes things like transportation to appointments, co-pays, medications, medical equipment, lodging for families, food support, and even small but meaningful items like new clothes for patients leaving the hospital with dignity.
Running this marathon is a personal challenge for me, but it’s also an opportunity to support a mission I deeply believe in. If you’re able to give, thank you—your support truly makes a difference for the patients and families we serve.
Thank you for being part of this journey with me 🤍
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.
