Why JB's to DMD Was Founded


In January of 2009 at 16 months JB Harvey was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), the leading genetic killer of children worldwide.  JB’s Keys to DMD was founded on his 2nd Birthday to give JB and the over 20,000 boys living with DMD in the United States a healthier and longer life.  

Three areas were identified to adress to succeed in giving JB and all boys living with DMD a healthier and longer life:

First Key: Facilitate Awareness

Second Key: Fund Research For Improved Quality of Care 

Awareness

First Key: Fund Advancing Research For A Cure

We are a 501c3 charity dedicated to increasing awareness of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD) while appropriating funds for quality care and research that will create treatments for DMD, ensuring affected children will have the opportunity of a lifetime.
