Open Your Heart funding will support The Real Minneapolis’ Meals with Meaning program. In 2025, Meals with Meaning prepared 27,500 meals and provided more than 10,000 healthy snacks and survival supplies. Their mission is to meet people where they are with compassion and trust, offering food as both nourishment and the entry point to support, tools, mentorship, and training that help people move beyond survival. The Meals with Meaning program partners with Nenookaasi Coalition, Youthprise, and George Floyd Square ambassadors. In this way, Meals with Meaning is more than food, it is a redistribution of resources and dignity that advances inclusion at every level. This grant will go toward outreach needs and meal packaging. Open Your Heart is a proud partner of The Real Minneapolis’ cultivation of an ecosystem of care that brings hope, health, and healing to the most under-served community members.
