Support World Duchenne Awareness Day with CureDuchenne
September 7
As World Duchenne Awareness Day (WDAD) approaches on September 7, we at CureDuchenne invite you to join us in raising awareness and showing support for our Duchenne community.

Why it matters
Your participation amplifies the voices of those affected by Duchenne muscular dystrophy and spreads awareness about the disease. By sharing your support on social media, you are making a significant impact and showing solidarity with Duchenne families.
Together, let's make World Duchenne Day a memorable and impactful event.
