Walk For Wishes® is a nationwide Make-A-Wish® fundraiser that celebrates the more than 500,000 wishes that have already been granted, while raising funds to fulfill future wishes of children with critical illnesses. It's a family-friendly event powered by wish families, volunteers, companies, donors and friends.

We invite you to join us for our Walk For Wishes Twin Cities on June 5, 2021 - whether it is in person or virtually! If you join in person, we will be scheduling participants to start the 5K walk in staggered waves to allow for social distancing. You are welcome to walk, roll in a wheelchair, jog or run if you like.

Proceeds from the Walk for Wishes® Twin Cities will be used to make wishes come true for Minnesota children with critical illnesses. We look forward to walking with you and are grateful for your support!  View our 2021 Walk For Wishes teams, or donate to support Minnesota wish kids

Event day logistics:

Minnehaha Park will be open to all. There is an inherent risk of exposure to COVID-19 or related strains in any public place where people are present. This event will take place in an environment open to the public and Make-A-Wish Minnesota and our venue partners cannot prevent you from being exposed to, contracting, transmitting, or spreading COVID-19 and similar diseases while attending or participating in the event.

When teams/guests register there is an option to pick “Virtual Walker.” That will let us know you will be walking on your own at your home or favorite location. Make-A-Wish Minnesota will mail T-shirts (walkers must raise $50, including the $20 registration to receive a shirt) and any fundraising incentives earned.
