Mission Statement
The Muscular Dystrophy Assoication (MDA) is an organization that is dedicated to eradicating neuromuscular diseases. Neuromuscular disease affects thousands of children and adults and currently there is no cure.
Description
While MDA's primary focus is to find a cure, we are also interested in helping to improve the lives of people with neuromuscular disease.
One way that we try and help children with muscular dystrophy is through our annual summer camp program. Our camp is held this year June 12 - 17 th, 2011 at Recreation Unlimited in Ashley, Ohio. Camp is free of charge to all campers. During camp, children with muscular dystrophy can be themselves with other children like them. MDA provides a week of activities that campers with never forget including arts & crafts, fishing, rides on Harley Davidson motorcycles and much more.
