Inaugural Never Walk Alone 5k Walk/Run + Kids Dash
|
June 10th 2023 | Phalen Park | St. Paul, MN
Why are we hosting this event?! We've all heard the saying about walking a mile in someone else's shoes before judging them. Before we judge someone else, we need to understand everyone has a personal journey that is often traveled alone. Even if we walk a mile in someone else's shoes, you will never really know their true story, journey, or what it's like to be them. We must try to understand, accept, and foster a relationship with each other. Love them for being them, their true authentic selves. By doing this, you are showing another that they never have to walk alone. That there is support and love along their journey and often times in their darkest hours. Let's walk together in solidarity to raise awareness, critical funds, and shed light on the stigma surrounding mental illness. Gather your family, friends, coworkers, and fur-babies and help reach our fundraising goal of $60,000+, and show everyone they will Never Walk Alone. |

The 7th Annual Night of Impact Gala - The Spectacular Mind was a night to remember. So many of you came together to support youth mental health! We are so humbled by the multiple ways every attendee made an impact on our communities and joined us in furthering our mission! The night was filled with dazzling live entertainment, games, silent and live auctions, and a Fund-A-Need. We awarded a $10,000 check to a Minnesota Nonprofit Project20Three a nonprofit started in the honor of Cody Heppner awarding scholarships to students of Warroad High School pursuing a degree in mental health. We saw record breaking funds raised and so many new supporters at this year's event. Together we raised $303,934 AND STILL COUNTING!!! |
