Todd Feske, founder of Walking With a Purpose Minnesota, has spent over ten years walking alongside people experiencing homelessness in Saint Paul. Visiting camps multiple times a week, his team has brought food, blankets, and other essentials—but more importantly, they’ve taken the time to listen to hundreds of stories, learning why some choose to remain outside despite the resources available to them.

What Todd discovered is simple but profound: everyone is searching for a place to belong. Shelter alone isn’t enough—people need a community where they are seen for who they are today, not judged for their past. That’s the heart of Sacred Settlements. These are not just homes; they are communities where relationships are built, dignity is restored, and people can step into their potential.

Todd’s work highlights the urgent need and the possibility for change. With over 80 people served in a single day, his message is clear: supporting Sacred Settlements isn’t just practical—it’s the right thing to do.
