Climbers Raise over $435K at 411 E. Wisconsin Center for Lung Health

More than 1200 participated in Lung Association event to help find cure for lung disease

This morning, more than 1200 people raised over $435,000 at the 2026 Fight For Air Climb Milwaukee, locally presented by UnitedHealthcare. The event supports nearly 800,000 people living with lung disease in Wisconsin.

Climbers of all skill levels raced to the top of 411 E. Wisconsin Center to raise awareness and money to fight lung disease through research, education, and advocacy.

“Thanks to the determination of our supporters and climbers we raised over $435,000 to help ongoing efforts to end lung cancer and lung disease in Wisconsin,” said Megan Cordova, Executive Director, American Lung Association in Wisconsin. “We are very grateful to everyone that came out to support lung health and so proud of the funds raised.”

The Lung Association looks forward to next year’s Milwaukee Climb and will continue its commitment to improving lung health and preventing lung disease.
