The Albuquerque Marathon and RunFit are proud to partner with Heading Home, offering participants and community members an opportunity to contribute toward a truly worthy and impactful cause. A portion of event proceeds, along with generous participant donations, will directly support Heading Home’s mission to help individuals and families experiencing homelessness in Albuquerque.
About Heading Home
Heading Home provides essential services to the unhoused and precariously housed throughout Albuquerque. Their mission is to empower individuals experiencing homelessness through compassionate outreach, comprehensive support services, and strong community partnerships, creating pathways to stable housing and long-term stability.
The organization operates emergency shelters and medical respite programs, administers supportive housing initiatives, provides critical linkages to resources through street outreach, offers job-readiness assistance, and leads New Mexico’s SOAR program, which helps individuals apply for SSI/SSDI benefits.
Monetary donations will support the purchase of mattresses for newly housed individuals and families—an immediate, life-changing need as people transition to stable housing.
Together, through your generosity and participation in the Albuquerque Marathon, we can help make a meaningful difference for those most in need in our community.
Thank you,
RunFit
