ROCHESTER, MN – On Saturday, April 26, 2025, the Tim Rasmusson Foundation (TRF) invites the community to participate in the 11th Annual Timmay 5K at Silver Lake Park in Rochester, Minnesota.
This cherished event honors the memory of Tim Rasmusson, who tragically passed away on April 9, 2014, from an aortic aneurysm at just 26 years old. Known as "Timmay" to his friends, Tim’s legacy lives on through his generous eye, tissue, and organ donation, which impacted many lives.
The Timmay 5K is more than a race—it's a movement. With the slogan “Target Donor Awareness,” the event raises awareness about organ, eye, and tissue donation, inspiring participants to become registered donors and help save lives.
Funds raised from the event support the Gift of Life Transplant House in Rochester, which provides affordable accommodations and support for transplant patients and their families. The event also aligns with National Donate Life Month, amplifying the need for organ donors as more than 100,000 people currently await life-saving transplants. By joining the Timmay 5K, participants contribute to a cause that changes lives.
