    Situation

    Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) is the most common and most severe form of Muscular Dystrophy. It mostly affects boys and is diagnosed at around three years of age. It starts in the leg muscles before quickly progressing to other muscles groups, restricting the children first to walking aids, then wheelchairs before eventually leading to death. Most children with DMD do not live beyond their early twenties.

    Solution

    By sponsoring the wishes of children fighting this particular life-threatening illness we will be closer to granting our target number of wishes that are referred to Make-A-Wish.
