A Message From Our Founders
A Message From Our Founders
We are a community of patients, caregivers, physicians, scientists, friends, and advocates united by a shared mission: to empower and enrich the lives of children living with neuromuscular conditions.
No matter where you are on your journey with a neuromuscular disease, you are not alone.
Pediatric neuromuscular diseases encompass a wide range of conditions that profoundly affect the lives of children and their families. These disorders are often chronic, progressive, and life-altering, with many patients requiring costly, long-term care and support. While research into advanced treatments is ongoing, there is currently no cure.
Help us build a future where every child with a neuromuscular condition receives the care and support they deserve.
Sincerely,
Anushka Noori and Anshul Noori
Co-Founders
"We fundraise for children living with neuromuscular conditions—the fighters, the dreamers, and the families who face each day with courage. Every dollar supports their care, their hope, and their future."
