Minnesota Stroke Association

Minnesota Stroke Association's 2026 Strides for Stroke
THANK YOU TO ALL WHO PARTICIPATED!!!

We had absolutely stunning weather for this year's Strides for Stroke, and participation was fabulous. It was wonderful to see so many people at this walk again.

  • More than $22,000 raised to support stroke awareness, education, advocacy, and programs that help stroke survivors and families navigate recovery.
  • li>Attendance surpassed last year by more than 100 participants! < li>Communities across Minnesota came together to share stories, honor loved ones, celebrate survivors, and build hope for the future.

This year's honorees in the Twin Cities, Duluth, and Saint Cloud reminded us that stroke affects people of every age and background, and that connection and community make all the difference.

Because, Strides for Stroke isn't just the miles walked or dollars raised. It's the conversations and reunions between people who understand what this journey looks like. It's encouragement from one another and new connections being made.

To everyone who walked, donated, volunteered, sponsored, fundraised, shared our message, or simply showed up to support someone they love: thank you.

You made this year special.

If you'd still like to support the effort,donate today! Let's keep building on this momentum together
