Sleepless in Havasu is more than an event—it’s a powerful community experience dedicated to raising awareness, hope, and support for those affected by breast cancer.

Beginning at 6:00 a.m. on Friday, September 11 and continuing through 6:00 a.m. on Saturday, September 12, participants will take on the challenge of staying awake for 24 hours, united by a shared purpose at Micheal Alan Furniture. Teams will be assigned beds throughout our showroom and encouraged to transform them into creative displays inspired by breast cancer awareness, hope, courage, and survivorship.

This year’s theme is Patriotic Pride, honoring the strength, resilience, and unity that define both our nation and the courageous individuals impacted by breast cancer. Teams are encouraged to decorate their beds in red, white, and blue while incorporating meaningful breast cancer awareness elements that celebrate hope, freedom, and the spirit of coming together for a greater cause.

What makes Sleepless in Havasu truly special is the direct impact it has on our community. Every dollar raised stays local and helps provide FREE mammogram screenings for individuals who may not otherwise have access to this potentially life-saving service. Early detection saves lives, and through your support, more people will have the opportunity to receive critical breast health screenings.

Cancer Care Resource is proud to partner with Renee Hudson’s Pink Radio Event to ensure that support extends beyond the initial screening. If a mammogram reveals an abnormal finding and additional testing is needed, this partnership helps connect individuals with the resources and assistance necessary to continue their diagnostic journey. Together, we are working to remove barriers to care and provide hope, support, and access when it matters most.

Throughout the event, participants will enjoy interactive activities, entertainment, friendly competitions, and opportunities to connect with others who are passionate about making a difference. The energy, creativity, and dedication displayed throughout the night serve as a powerful reminder that no one fights cancer alone.

At its heart, Sleepless in Havasu is about building a community of support. Among us are courageous individuals currently battling cancer, survivors whose strength inspires us every day, caregivers offering unwavering love, and families standing beside their loved ones through every step of the journey.

Together, we celebrate resilience, honor those we have lost, support those who are fighting, and raise vital funds that provide access to screenings, follow-up care, and hope for those facing uncertainty. Through compassion, connection, and community, we create a lasting impact—one sleepless night at a time.

Decorate a Bed. Stay Awake. Save Lives.
