Mimosas for Marrow 5K

Event Overview

Oakley Overcomes, Inc. presents: Mimosas for Marrow 5K

Join us for the 4th annual Mimosas for Marrow 5K run/walk—a joyful, heartfelt event that brings our community together to support families affected by blood cancers and disorders, and to honor the incredible strength of those searching for a lifesaving bone marrow donor.

Inspired by Oakley’s Journey

This event was created by local moms, Sam and Brittany, after Sam’s daughter, Oakley, received a lifesaving bone marrow transplant in 2022. Her courage continues to fuel our mission to support NMDP and families right here in our community walking similar roads.

Why It Matters

Every 3–4 minutes, someone in the U.S. is diagnosed with a blood cancer or disorder. For many, a matching donor is their only hope. Your presence, your steps, and your support truly make a difference.
