On June 7, 2025, the small but mighty community of St. Martin, Minnesota came together in a big way for the 3rd Annual Henry’s Heroes Walk. Henry’s Heroes raised an incredible $46,000; the organization’s largest fundraising total to date.
More than 700 participants registered for this year’s walk, proudly wearing purple t-shirts, as they walked in honor of NICU babies and families. The event was nothing short of inspiring, blending purpose and inspiration to anyone that attended. The perfect weather set the stage for a powerful tribute along the one-mile stretch of scenic countryside road, where over 170 posters featuring NICU baby photos lined the way, touching every heart.
The family-friendly celebration included bounce houses, face painting, and the annual Kids Cape Crawl, giving children a chance to feel like the true super heroes they are. Local vendors and generous food donations helped make the day even more special.
Henry’s Heroes extends deep gratitude to all of its sponsors, with special recognition to our Miracle Maker sponsors, Edward Jones and the Albany Legion, each contributing at the $5,000 level. Their support, along with that of many others, made the day not only possible, but unforgettable.
Henry’s Heroes continues to grow, driven by its mission to support NICU families with compassion, resources, and hope. With each step taken at the walk, the impact grows, and more Central Minnesota NICU families can receive direct financial support. Thank you to everyone who attended or contributed to our event, for believing in our mission, and for growing this community of support, hope, and healing. Mark your calendars for next year’s event: 4th Annual Henry’s Heroes Walk – Saturday, June 6, 2026!
