- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
MDA Muscle Walk is a life-changing event that strengthens families and communities. In more than 150 hometowns across America, every event includes a 1- to 3.1-mile lap designed for participants of all ages and abilities, including a wheelchair and equipment friendly course. Leading up to the event, participants and teams fundraise to help MDA find research breakthroughs across diseases, care for kids and adults from day one and empower families with services and support to live longer and grow stronger. Muscle Walk is more than a fundraising walk. It’s a powerful experience that forges lifelong connections, celebrates families and the barriers they overcome and turns hope into answers.
We are looking for volunteers to help assist with event set up, registration, but most importantly to be there to cheer and root our MDA patients and families on as they complete each lap of the event. Letting them know we stand proudly along side them in their fight to live unlimited!
