The Landing MN was honored to be part of the Rochester Area Chamber of Commerce Women’s Roundtable this past week!
A special thank you to TerraLoco, a longtime partner and supporter of The Landing MN, for hosting this wonderful event. Owner Tiffany Piotrowicz shared why TerraLoco has chosen to support our mission, the value of community partnerships, and how something as simple as the right pair of shoes can make a tremendous difference in a person's health, comfort, and well-being.
Our Director of Development, Erin, provided an overview of The Landing MN and shared how every person's journey into homelessness is unique. That's why we strive to remove as many barriers as possible by offering a wide range of services under one roof—from meals and showers to social services and medical care.
Crystal, our Medical Services Coordinator, spoke about the incredible impact of TerraLoco's partnership. For several years, TerraLoco has collected new and gently used shoes for our guests. Because many of the individuals we serve rely on walking as their primary means of transportation, having clean, well-fitting, quality shoes is more than a comfort—it's essential to their health, safety, and dignity.
Thank you to everyone who attended, asked thoughtful questions, and took the time to learn more about the realities of homelessness in our community. Conversations like these help build understanding, compassion, and lasting change.
And thank you to the Rochester Area Chamber of Commerce for creating opportunities that bring together businesses, nonprofits, and community members to strengthen Rochester together. ❤️
