MIOCA is proud to present our Mother's Day Time to Teal Run/Walk in Downtown Ann Arbor on Sunday, May 11, 2025!

Grab your family and friends to join us for our annual Mother's Day Time to Teal 5K and Fun Run! This event is an opportunity for us to gather to celebrate the incredible women in our lives, while raising crucial ovarian cancer awareness in our community.

Both the 5K and one mile Fun Run are walker-friendly!

We are honored to continue the tradition of this race inspired by our co-founder Pam Dahlmann, who lost her mother to ovarian cancer and sought a meaningful way to celebrate her memory on Mother’s Day. Sadly, Geri Fournier, co-founder of MIOCA, whose memory this honors, lost her battle in 2011.

Through this event, we aim to raise vital awareness for this often overlooked and under-researched disease, while honoring those impacted by ovarian cancer. The event continues today to bring together mothers, daughters, family, and friends while supporting the fight against ovarian cancer.

All proceeds from this race benefit the Michigan Ovarian Cancer Alliance.

Join us for the 9th annual Rent Party on Thursday, May 15. Presented by CN, this event will raise the roof in style with a cocktail reception, dinner, auction and amazing live music at a sophisticated historic venue - The Treasury in Pontiac.
Rent parties began in the 1920’s to raise money for rent and played a major role in the development of jazz and blues. In that spirit, we come together and raise funds to support Lighthouse’s core services including shelter and housing.
This year's event will unfold at The Treasury, built in the roaring twenties in downtown Pontiac not far from our Lighthouse headquarters.
Sip, savor and connect with a dynamic audience while supporting our vital programs.
