Charity Partners
Join us in giving back to our community!
In 2018, Mike Rogers (local business owner of Wayzata-based 360 Financial) and his wife, Anne Rogers, took over ownership of the Lake Minnetonka Triathlon, after many years as lead sponsors, volunteers, and even race participants. Their vision was simple: add a strong charitable giving component that will raise money for our community.
To date, the Lake Minnetonka Triathlon has been able to donate $75,000+ to local charities!
In order to make a more substantial impact, two long-term charity partners were selected. Below we introduce those organizations: Interfaith Outreach and Community for the Commons. Net proceeds from our event benefit these two partners.

Owners of the Lake Minnetonka Triathlon
Interfaith Outreach
75% of all net proceeds benefit Interfaith Outreach, specifically their Neighborhood Youth Scholarship Program.
The program provides financial support to children in our community to participate in programs such as swimming lessons, running clubs, and summer camps, alongside their peers. Without the support of this program, many of these kids would not be able to participate due to lack of funds.
Community for the Commons
25% of net proceeds benefit the Community for the Commons.
Community for the Commons is a non-profit organization dedicated to the long-term enhancement and improvement of the Excelsior Commons park.
Community for the Commons was selected as a recipient of funds raised because we believe it is our responsibility to help support and maintain the beautiful area where our event takes place each year.
