MDA Summer Retail Campaigns

Our Summer Camp-focused retail campaigns, including the iconic pinups and roundup options, highlight one of MDA's integral platforms and provide children and young adults living with muscular dystrophy and related neuromuscular conditions a place to build confidence, independence, and lifelong friendships. Additionally, funds from this campaign go towards accelerating research, advancing care, and advocating for families living with neuromuscular diseases.
