"2nd Annual High Heel Dash" will help the Aegis Foundation enhance the lives of young people by financially supporting youth organizations.

We’re closing Nicollet Mall for this extravaganza! The 2nd Annual High Heel Dash will consist of contestants (men & women in separate heats) running a 25-yard dash in heels, 3 inches or taller.

Show your support for people in need by attending Aegis Foundation’s 2nd Annual High Heel Dash at Peavey Plaza on Nicollet Mall in downtown Minneapolis. Men and women of all ages are welcome to compete in the 25-yard dash wearing a pair of high heels (heels must be a minimum of three inches) which will benefit two wonderful charities– Emergency Foodshelf Network (EFN), a non-profit food bank distributing food and support services to Minnesota hunger relief organizations and Project Footsteps, an organization that inspires, empowers and prepares youth to be agents of change, social leaders and volunteers.
