Ride a horse, save MDC.
On behalf of myself and the Muscular Dystrophy community, one of my favourite humans, Kayla Welsh is raising money for Muscular Dystrophy Canada (MDC) by participating in the 2024 Guacho Derby; a 500 km race on horseback through the Patagonian wilderness. Very exciting and very Kayla, if you know her.
I’ve known Kayla since the ninth grade (circa 2005) which is the beginning of my symptoms, long before I was finally diagnosed with MD. To know someone who knew you before your life-changing diagnosis and decline is deeply special; a time in history I’ll cherish more than anything alongside our steady friendship. There aren’t many people besides family that know that side of me so her choosing MDC is very touching. (Love ya, Squelch!)
Please share and donate if you can, 100% goes to MDC. These funds help support MDC’s programs, services, research initiatives, and provide funding for life-changing equipment to enhance the lives of those affected by Neuromuscular Disorders.
