At Muscular Dystrophy Canada we value the incredible community across the country who champion our mission with courage, determination, and passion. Through the Dr David Green Awards program, we recognize and celebrate these incredible groups and individuals each year.
We are excited to announce the esteemed 2025 Dr David Green Award winners. In the past year, these amazing groups and individuals showed exceptional commitment to improving the lives of Canadians affected by neuromuscular disorders by raising critical funds, increasing awareness and advocating for our community, supporting continued research, engaging with other community members and building positive connections.
“Muscular Dystrophy Canada is extremely fortunate to have such incredible individuals and groups committed to supporting our mission and the Canadian neuromuscular community,” says Stacey Lintern, CEO, Muscular Dystrophy Canada. “Each year, volunteers from all areas of Canada with varying skills, jobs, talents and interests make Muscular Dystrophy Canada’s initiatives possible. Thank you doesn’t even begin to cover just how appreciative we are for each and every one of this year’s recipients. Thank you for breaking down barriers for the neuromuscular community!”
