MDA Muscle Walk Volunteer

Muscular Dystrophy Association of Iowa is holding their annual MDA Muscle Walk in Iowa City, IA and is looking for volunteers to help set up/tear down and assist with day-of activities.

The largest, most inspiring event of its kind, MDA Muscle Walk brings communities together--donors, families, partners, sponsors and volunteers--to fight back against muscle disease.

Through MDA Muscle Walk, the community joins forces to raise critical dollars that will make a real difference in the lives of people fighting life-threatening muscle disease in your community and across the nation. Funds raised through the Muscle Walk program build on decades of research progress, helping push science to its limits in the search for treatments and cures. The dollars we raise through Muscle Walk support MDA’s life-enhancing programs, including state-of-the-art clinics and support groups. They also make MDA summer camp possible, so kids with muscle disease can enjoy "the best week of the year."
