Join us for the 10th annual Have a Heart Benefit, "The Beat of the Big Easy". Spend an evening in colorful and culturally rich New Orleans without leaving downtown Minneapolis. Warm up the winter with hot jazz and cajun music while indulging in the decadence of the Deep South.

This year, there are two admission options for the Have a Heart Benefit. Whether you choose to join us for the entire event or just the latter part of the night, come prepared for a fun-filled evening as you make a difference in the lives of our Odayin campers.
