2024 Charity Partner – Ronald McDonald House

Ronald McDonald House Charities – Upper Midwest

With five locations in Minnesota, including RMH Northland in downtown Duluth, we serve families from across the state and region and from around the world.  Every day, we provide free meals, lodging, essential supplies, and supportive programming to hundreds of families dealing with a child’s health crisis.  We never charge for our services, thanks to the support of compassionate individuals, generous organizations, and hard-working volunteers.  By running for the House that Love Built, you’ll help families stay together, close to the care and resources their child needs.
