Spinal Muscular Atrophy and The Gwendolyn Strong Foundation

Our dear friends, the Greene family, with daughter Sara (pictured) brought Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) to our attention and they immediately had a place in our hearts. They connected us with the Gewndolyn Strong foundation and now we are fighting SMA together.

The Gwendolyn Strong Foundation (GSF) seeks to raise awareness about and fund research for Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), the leading genetic killer of young children, and support those impacted by SMA and other life-altering diseases. The Foundation was born out of Bill and Victoria Strong's firsthand experience with their precious daughter, Gwendolyn. Gwendolyn was born perfectly healthy in October 2007, but only 6 months was diagnosed with SMA Type 1, a terminal disease.

As witnesses to the degenerative cruelty of SMA, Bill and Victoria are personally and passionately dedicated to leaving no stone unturned in raising awareness about and funding research for SMA and supporting families who are impacted by SMA and other life-altering diseases.

The Greene and Strong Families will be in attendance on Saturday and thank you for all your support.

Progeria Research Foundation

25 years ago the Foose family lost their daughter and sister, Amy to Progeria. Ever since, mother Terry and brother, Chip (legendary car builder) have been raising support for the Progeria Research Foundation. Their mission is to discover the cure and effective treatment for Progeria and its aging related disorders.

Hutchinson-Gilford Progeria Syndrome ("Progeria", or "HGPS") is a rare, fatal genetic condition characterized by an appearance of accelerated aging in children. Its name is derived from the Greek and means "prematurely old."

Terry Foose, founder of the first Progeria Research Foundation Chapter, will be present Saturday, the 29th, and hopes to see you there!
