Come out and use your muscles to help us fight against muscle disease! The 2016 Muscular Dystrophy Association Pasco County Muscle Walk is going to be huge! All types of volunteers are needed. There will be positions that help us with the set up and clean up, putting up signage along the walk route, setting up tables and chairs and hanging banners, you will also be mingling with walkers during the walk (this should be lots of fun!). There are also tables where you can give out water/food, help with poster making, assist with registration, etc. This a great opportunity for everyone to help out!
Each day, everyday freedoms like walking, hugging, playing and even breathing are taken away from kids and adults in our community with muscular dystrophy, ALS and related muscle-debilitating diseases.
The dollars we raise together fuel MDA's efforts to find research breakthroughs across diseases; to care for kids and adults from day one; and to empower families in hometowns across America with services and support. We can’t do this without you!

The Muscular Dystrophy Association is the world’s leading nonprofit health agency dedicated to saving and improving the lives of anyone with muscle disease, including muscular dystrophy, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other neuromuscular diseases.

Description
Finding research breakthroughs across diseases MDA takes a big-picture perspective across neuromuscular diseases to uncover breakthroughs that will accelerate treatments and cures. The power in this research approach is that knowledge and information from one disease can often yield progress in others to speed urgently needed answers for families.
Caring for kids and adults from day one MDA provides early diagnosis, highly specialized care and access to promising clinical trials at MDA Care Centers in top hospitals and health care facilities across the United States and Puerto Rico.
Empowering families with services and support From support groups and educational seminars to assistance with durable medical equipment and giving kids with muscular dystrophy the best week of the year at MDA Summer Camp, MDA empowers families in hometowns across America with help and support they need today. Consider MDA’s impact last year:
