Aim to carry 30 pounds of food items in your ruck. If you don't want to carry the weight in your ruck or have additional donations, please bring your items to the starting line and drop it off. The food pantry will graciously accept all canned goods and food items, however here is a list of the most needed items: Pancake mix Syrup Juice (that doesn’t need refrigeration) Canned meat like Spam, chicken, tuna, and beef Cereal Beans - black, pinto, pork & beans - no green beans please Bar Soap Laundry Soap Keep in mind that these items are for families and canned goods should be limited to 15 ounce or less cans.

There will not be any official timing, awards, or race swag, which you might find at a sanctioned race. It is more or less a large, organized group run with everything Costco :)

The Heat the Streets Run & Walk for Warmth is a community fundraising event that supports local utility assistance programs, helping neighbors in need pay their utility bills. Choose from a timed 5K run, timed 10K run, untimed 2-mile walk or participate virtually from anywhere. Hosted annually by Metropolitan Utilities District and Omaha Public Power District since 2007, the event raises awareness of the ongoing need for utility assistance. While the event takes place during the winter months, the need for help with heating, electricity and other utility costs continues throughout the year. M.U.D. and OPPD's partnership ensures all costs associated with the event are covered, so 100% of the money received from sponsorships, donations and registrations goes directly to those in need. Funds raised are administered by Dollar Energy Fund, Inc., a registered 501(c)(3), and then split between M.U.D.’s Home Fund and OPPD’s Energy Assistance Program to provide assistance to our customers living in Burt, Cass, Colfax, Dodge, Douglas, Johnson, Nemaha, Otoe, Pawnee, Richardson, Sarpy, Saunders and Washington counties. All money raised is distributed through this local network. Dollar Energy Fund's mission is to improve the quality of life for households experiencing hardships by providing utility assistance and other services that lead to self-sufficiency.
