CureDuchenne is a nonprofit that raises awareness and funds research to find a cure for Duchenne muscular dystrophy.

Duchenne is a devastating fatal muscle disease that impacts one in every 3,500 boys. Duchenne patients are usually diagnosed at age 5, lose their ability to walk by 12 and most don’t survive their mid-20s. Currently there is no cure for Duchenne. Proceeds of the event will fund impactful research to find a cure for Duchenne.
