PURPOSE

The Everett and Austin Project is a 501(c)3 registered charity. We are helping children and families suffering from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and other rare diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa.

WHAT

We are hiking up to 500 miles this fall to raise funds to help care for kids and families suffering from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and other rare diseases in Sub-Saharan Africa. Join us as a participant or as a pledger and donor.

Either way we will be extremely grateful because every mile and every dollar counts! Each dollar goes a long way in Sub-Saharan Africa where we are serving.

Here is a tracking form to help you keep track of your pledgers for you miles if you would like to participate.

PLEDGE

Pledge for each mile that someone hikes, walks, power walks, runs, bikes or swims during the 3 month fall season. Individuals may go as high as 500 miles (805 kilometers) during the fall of 2021 as they try to raise money for The Everett and Austin Project, Inc.

A person can participate wherever they are in the world. They may do all 500 miles or some portion.  Some may go over. Ask your participant how much they plan to do before you pledge, ok?

Raising money is not required to participate but it makes it funner if you ask me.  Again, no specific location is required.

The Cause

The goal of the Everett and Austin Project, Inc. is to improve the health-related quality of life for children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy and other rare diseases, and increase educational opportunities for individuals and families in developing countries. Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy is a genetic disease that causes progressive muscle weakness, leading to disability, impaired function, and decreased ability to participate in daily activities.

Children in developing countries are often underserved, neglected, and/or abandoned by their parents. Some families live in remote areas with little to no access to medical and healthcare resources. Additionally, impoverished individuals and families struggle to meet their daily basic needs due to lack of much needed resources. The Everett and Austin Project seeks to educate, empower, and equip individuals with products, services, and skills to improve overall quality of life and sustainable living in developing countries.

Pledge to support a hiker, walker or runner today. You can pledge for yourself, or Tim or someone else you know that is doing Hike for Ducehnne V.
