Minnesotans are facing greater food and housing insecurity today.

Your donation directly supports essentials like nutritious meals, safe shelter, case management, and basic supplies.

How your gift helps:

• Provides emergency food and meals to neighbors in crisis.

• Keeps shelter beds and safe spaces open for people fleeing violence or homelessness.

• Supports basic essentials including hygiene items, warm clothing, and household supplies.

• Builds capacity so partner agencies can respond quickly and effectively.

Our goal for Give to the Max Day is $75,000. The Open Your Heart board and staff are matching donations up to $15,000, so every gift has double the impact.

• $25 — Meal and supplies for a family.
