A heartfelt thank you to everyone who helped make the first-annual Dinks for a Difference Classic such a success. Together, our pickleballers helped raise more than $3,800 in support of MitoCanada. All proceeds went towards supporting Canadians living with mitochondrial disease through education, support, awareness and transformational research. A special thank you to the team at YYC Pickleball, especially owner Ivy Chan, for hosting this incredible fundraiser in support of MitoCanada.

Join us for the first annual “Light Up for Miller” community gathering at Memorial Park in White Rock, BC to share a sweet treat, connect with the community, and watch the White Rock Pier light up for mito on the evening of September 20th. The event is hosted by Taylor and Chris Collins who lost their 5-month-old son Miller to an extremely rare form of MT-TL1-related mitochondrial disease in October 2025.

Welcome to the heart of our community – where passionate individuals and groups across the country come together to support MitoCanada! This page is your go-to destination for all the incredible events happening nationwide in support of those impacted by mitochondrial disease. We are deeply grateful to the dedicated individuals and organizations who take the time to plan and host these events.
