ChadTough Defeat DIPG Gala

2026 ChadTough Gala

Saturday, May 9, 2026

Ann Arbor, MI

We are looking forward to our 8th annual ChadTough Defeat DIPG Gala. Join us at the Crisler Center in your “cocktail chic with a pop of orange!”

This is one of our most meaningful nights of the year. It is a chance to come together, honor the kids we’ve lost, and reflect on how far we’ve come in the fight against DIPG and DMG.

Guests experience an evening filled with inspiration, powerful stories, and unforgettable moments, all while raising critical funds to fuel groundbreaking research.
