About our Mission

Many people in the world do not know what Duchenne muscular dystrophy is. Because only one in every 5,000 boys gets this disease. However, families and their surroundings whose children struggle with this disease have to live with the stress of this disease every day. We call them DMD Warriors.

DMDWarrior.com was established to raise awareness of this disease worldwide, facilitate access to treatments, and ensure that treatment costs are affordable.

What is our purpose?

One in every 5,000 children in the world is born with DMD, and many families only realize their child has the disease when they are 3-4 years old. FDA-approved treatments for DMD are too expensive for families to afford. Our goal is to reduce treatment costs and have the costs covered by the government.

Ease of Access to Treatments

In many countries, DMD treatments are not available, and families incur huge costs for travel abroad.

Reducing Treatment Costs

Treatments for DMD are very expensive, and it is nearly impossible for families to cover these costs themselves.

Raising Awareness on Social Media

We do not want any child to die. If you also want to find a solution to this situation, follow us on social media.
