Raise the Community Pace Initiative
As local charities face increasing challenges to secure funding and engage new donors, Twin Cities In Motion is launching the Raise the Community Pace initiative, a transformative effort to more than double its annual charity fundraising impact from $1 million to $2.62 million by 2028.
The ambitious plan intends to grow the number of race participants raising funds at Medtronic Twin Cities Marathon Weekend events from 800 to 3,000 as well as increasing the roster of charity fundraising teams from 54 this year to 100 by the culmination of the campaign.
