Make a donation.
We are proud to partner with Huntington’s Disease Society of America (HDSA) to spread awareness on the effects of Huntington’s Disease, raise money for their ongoing missions, and increase efforts on finding a cure.
What Is Huntington’s Disease?
Huntington’s disease (HD) is a brain disease that is passed down in families from generation to generation. It is caused by a mistake in the DNA instructions that build our bodies and keep them running. DNA is made up of thousands of genes, and people with HD have a small error in one gene, called huntingtin. Over time this error causes damage to the brain and leads to HD symptoms. Learn more about HD and the HDSA here.
We will be doubling (2x) each donation received online & during the event!
