2021 Heat the Streets Run & Walk for Warmth
- Saturday, March 6, 2021
- Fully virtual
- Results must be posted by 11:59 p.m. Wednesday, March 10 to be considered for awards
Heat the Streets Run & Walk for Warmth is a 5K and one-mile walk. In the interest of participant safety, the decision has been made to host the 2021 event as fully virtual. We encourage you to complete the 5K or the one-mile walk on March 6 in your neighborhood, on local trails or from your home or gym treadmill!
Metropolitan Utilities District and Omaha Public Power District team up to host this annual event, with proceeds benefiting local utility assistance programs to help friends, family and neighbors in our communities pay their utility bills. The event is usually hosted in the cold winter months to bring attention to those who struggle to keep the lights on and heat their homes. However, utility assistance is a year-round need. Funds raised are administered by Dollar Energy Fund, Inc., a registered 501(c)3, and then split between M.U.D.’s Home Fund and OPPD’s Energy Assistance Program to provide local assistance to those in need.

OPPD is routing three separate transmission lines in the area that are needed to maintain system resiliency and reliability, support customer load growth, and future generation. While evaluating environmental, social, and engineering factors, we’re also seeking input from stakeholders.
As part of our public power promise, OPPD is committed to engaging you in these types of decisions, and we pledge to listen to your thoughts, ideas and questions. Learning about your properties is an important step in determining where the transmission lines should be located. Click here to learn more about the Sarpy Southwest Transmission Project.
