stay home with your family and play the Game of MIFA.
See how your path unfolds as you make decisions, experience hardships and achievements,
and spend a lifetime learning and growing. When you reach the end of the game,
share your successes by giving to MIFA,where your contribution
will help others on the road of life

Memphis' non-event of choice
The No-Go Gala is MIFA’s most successful non-event. Since 1996, more than $700,000 has been raised for MIFA through No-Go donations!
Instead of purchasing a plate at a fancy gala, paying a babysitter, and getting dolled up for a night on the town, don't attend the No-Go Gala, enjoy an evening in, and donate to MIFA!
If you would like to serve on the host
committee, or if you would like to be one of our corporate partners,
please contact Thomas Robinson at

Past No-Go invitations
Each year we create a fun invitation to celebrate MIFA and encourage families to spend a night in together. Last year we shared the MIFA movie queue, and the year before, we created the Cookin' Up Change: Recipes for a Night In cookbook. Have a look at the great recipes that people shared with us.
