The American Lung Association is saving lives by improving lung health and preventing lung disease. We were founded over 120 years ago by a group of volunteers dedicated to ending the lung health threat at the time: tuberculosis. With TB largely controlled in the United States, we have extended that mission to other respiratory diseases. And thanks to our donors, volunteers, program and event participants, and staff, we are America's trusted source for lung health education, lung disease research, support, programs, services and advocacy.
Our local special events help to support our mission toward clean air and healthy lungs for all by implementing impactful fundraising events in the Metro Detroit area. Through community support and engagement, we hope to build a better future for health!
