Open Hands Midway is excited to share a NEW fundraising event taking place in 2025 called, "Miles for Meals". This fundraiser is being held to raise awareness, and monetary donations, for the meal programs of Open Hands Midway.

Our Executive Director (pictured below) LOVES to ride her bicycle and is thrilled to put her joy for biking to use as a means to providing meals on a weekly basis for the guests we serve. Each week we serve approximately 320 meals combined on Monday and Wednesday. Making these meals is not a cheap undertaking which is why we are always trying new ways to fund raise as we help our neighbors in need. From May 1 to October 31, 2025 (weather permitting), you can be a part of providing the basic life necessity of food for our guests. Our goal is to raise $3,600.00 and our Executive Director is committed to riding 3,000 miles to help reach our goal!

​​

Our hope is that you will consider a donation, or multiple donations, anytime between May 1 and October 31, 2025 to help offset the costs we incur to provide meals. If you wish to donate online, you may click here. A printable donation form can be found by clicking here, instructions are self explanatory on the form. 

If you are a bicyclist yourself, why not commit to riding AND making a donation? Be creative, try to organize a group ride to raise even more money! The form, which includes an option of completing your own 'miles for meals' ride and making a donation, can be found by clicking here.

Anyone who does not wish to donate online may simply download this donation form, return it, including your check payable to Open Hands Midway, write 'Miles for Meals' in the memo line and mail it to us at: 436 Roy St. N., St. Paul, MN 55104.

NOTE: Riders, please send us a picture from your ride which we will post on our Facebook page. Include your first name, number of miles you rode, and where you rode.
