Welcome to the 2024 Walk & Roll for Muscular Dystrophy Canada! Whether you are a seasoned participant or a first-timer, thank you for joining us and pledging to break down barriers for Canadians affected by neuromuscular disorders.
By registering for the Walk & Roll for MDC, and fundraising, you will have a profound impact on the lives of thousands of Canadians. The funds you raise will help fund ground-breaking research, ensuring Canada is prepared to provide access to new life-changing treatments, while also filling the immediate need for advanced treatment and care options. Your fundraising ensures that when someone needs vital equipment to help live their best life- or even save their life - they won't have to struggle. Every dollar you raise helps MDC deliver a variety of targeted services for all kinds of people across Canada while also giving the neuromuscular community a voice and access to politicians and other key decision-makers who can address gaps in the healthcare system.
But Walk & Roll for MDC is more than a fundraiser. It is a fully accessible community event that is fun for families, friends, businesses and colleagues. It is a chance to come together, support the neuromuscular disorder community, and help provide critical funds for MDC’s life-changing programs and services.
Thank you for breaking down barriers for the neuromuscular community. I can’t wait to Walk and Roll with you so together we can change lives today, and well into the future!
