Help Us Support Those Who Protect Us

Join us for an evening of community, food, and fundraising at The Clarkston Tap, all in support of Neighbors United, a Michigan-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit helping firefighters and their families battling cancer.

Why This Matters

Every year, Michigan firefighters face a battle they never signed up for: cancer.
Due to occupational exposure, firefighters have a 9% higher cancer diagnosis rate and a 14% higher cancer-related death rate than the general population.

Neighbors United provides direct financial support so families can focus on treatment, recovery, and time together, not just medical bills.

Since its start, Neighbors United has given over $1.2 million directly to Michigan fire families
76 firefighters have been supported statewide in just the past year
Expanding early cancer screening programs to save lives

Why This Event

This fundraiser supports the 2026 #WalkForTheRed, honoring the fallen of 9/11 and supporting firefighters fighting cancer today.
A total of $5,000 must be raised, and the money goes toward Michigan fire families and life-saving screening efforts.
