Raising awareness about substance abuse, together.
Mike's 5K seeks to raise money for substance abuse treatment and prevention programs, to break down the stigma surrounding substance abuse and to build community among those affected by addiction.
Since 2017, we have donated $590,000 in the fight against substance abuse!
In memory of Michael Mulcahy
Mike’s 5k was founded in 2017 in memory of Milton resident Michael Mulcahy, who died in 2016 after a 10-year fight against addiction. The event raises money to help patients and families engaged in the same fight. We seek to erase stigma, spread awareness, strengthen treatment programs, and demonstrate the power of community and friendship in the battle against substance abuse. Since 2017, our organization has donated more than $590,000 to programs fighting substance abuse and brought together more than 500 people annually for our walk and run. Please join us in our mission.
Join the hundreds of people that run each year.
