Running in solidarity.
North Coast Running runs in solidarity with our immigrant community. As a Minnesota-based organization, we are heartbroken by the recent federal occupation taking place in our neighborhoods and streets where we live in and run through. We fundamentally believe that no human is illegal and all are welcome to chase their dreams whether that be in running or making a better life for themselves and their families. That’s why we’re taking action!
On February 14th, Coach Tyler & Coach Steph will be racing the Black Canyon 100K in Arizona in honor of our neighbors in the Twin Cities. We are partnering with Unidos MN to provide mutual aid support to families and individuals in need. Proceeds from donations will directly benefit our immigrant neighbors impacted in Minnesota.
Two Ways to Donate.
T-Shirt Purchase.
Pre-order a Love Thy Neighbor x North Coast tee in Natural or Navy designed and printed by our friends and fellow runners at Sharp Signs. T-Shirts will be sold for $40 and we'll cover printing, apparel, and shipping costs. All proceeds will go to Unidos MN.
T-shirts will be printed and mailed at the end of the month or you can pick them up in person at our community run and t-shirt pickup day on Saturday, February 28th [event details to come later].
Donate any amount you choose whether that be $5 or $100. We’ve set up a dedicated Venmo account in an effort to bypass any fees and get as much money possible to our community partners. All proceeds will go directly to Unidos MN.
All donations over $100 will receive a t-shirt, just make sure to enter your size and mailing address in our pre-order form.
We'll also collect cash donations at our community run and t-shirt pickup day on Saturday, February 28th.
