Our Reason Why 👶
4-year old Austin has rare, progressive and currently fatal form of childhood muscular dystrophy called L-CMD.
After being diagnosed at 6 months old, Austin's parents decided to create the 501c3 nonprofit L-CMD Research Foundation to develop treatments and to ultimately cure this rare disease.
Austin is a bright, cognitively typical kid who loves at-home school, playing with cars and watching his brother play video games. He's even been able to play Mario Kart with his limited hand mobility using a joystick!
The joy that Austin is able to create for himself and those around him does not change the fact that his body is failing him. He eats via feeding tube, needs breathing support while he sleeps, and his muscles are steadily weakening. We are funding scientific research to work as quickly as possible. It may not be in time for Austin, but we will tirelessly work for the kids who come after him too.
