2021 Walk4MD Wrap-Up
Thanks to the dedicated teams and participants who registered and fundraised for The Tenaquip Foundation Walk4MD, as well as the amazing donors, sponsors, and research champions, this year’s event was a huge success!
As of today, Muscular Dystrophy Canada (MDC) has exceeded their fundraising goal and reached a total of $925, 158.28 with donations still coming in! The funds raised will be instrumental to delivering MDC’s basket of programs and services, funding life-changing equipment and technologies, investing in translational and clinical research, supporting next-generation clinicians and scientists, increasing education and awareness, influencing positive change, providing emotional support to those affected by NMD… and more.
This year, MDC focused their signature Walk event on research – in addition to a selected Research Champions Team, over 100 clinicians, researchers and students participated. The feedback from our community on the enhanced focus on research has been so positive.
