Know Someone Who Could Use One More Moment?
One More Moment helps adults in Michigan facing advanced, Stage IV or metastatic cancer create meaningful Moments with the people they love.
If you are a family member, caregiver, healthcare professional, friend or community supporter, you can help connect someone with us.
You Don't Have to Be the Patient to Reach Out
A Moment request can begin with someone who cares about the individual and wants to help make a meaningful experience possible.
Family member
Caregiver
Oncology social worker
Nurse navigator
Hospice or palliative care professional
Hospital social worker or case manager
Friend
Cancer support organization
Community or faith organization
Healthcare and support professionals do not need to coordinate the entire Moment. Helping a patient or family connect with One More Moment is enough to get the process started.

Review Eligibility & Start a Request- The person is an adult.
- The person lives in Michigan.
