Cure Duchenne Draws Star Power with Anne Heche, James Tupper, Willie Garson, Kevin Weisman and More!

Where there’s a “Will” there’s a way!

Thanks to the Martin family and Prosum Technology, Title sponsor for Dealing for Duchenne, our first Los Angeles fundraising event was a star-studded success. Held at the famous Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, this event raised $200,000! Our sincere thanks to Willie Garson (Sex & the City), Anne Heche and James Tupper (Men in Trees), Josh Malina (West Wing), Joel Murray (Still Standing & our celebrity auctioneer), Hayley Norman (Hancock) and Kevin Weisman (Alias) for their compassion and commitment to helping us find a cure for our boys.

Thanks to Ralph Garmon's promotion of our event on the Kevin and Bean show on KROQ, 450 attendees joined the fun. Everyone had a great time mingling with the stars, dining on fabulous cuisine from Wolfgang Puck's, gambling and bidding on more than 150 great auction items.

FAMILY & FRIENDS MAKING A DIFFERENCE

Save Our Son (Florida -May 23, 2008). This year the Procko's did a great job of involving their community for a fun evening at the Branford High School auditorium. Their son, Evan, was recently diagnosed with Duchenne and they wanted to raise the public's awareness and raise funds for CureDuchenne to support the research that will hopefully lead to a cure. The event was hosted by Miss Florida, Kylie Williams, and organized by Diane Walker of Friends Fine Things, as well as Evan's parents, Bill and Kim Procko of O'Brien. More than 200 people enjoy the evening's entertainment which included singers, dancers and performers (both amateur as well as professional) with several prize drawings mixed in between the acts.

Racing for Timothy

(Austin Marathon, Texas, February 17, 2008). Once again, the Revell's raced for the cure. Proudly flying the CureDuchenne Crusader Cape, Tim, Laura and a team of supporters made the run for life. Thanks to Tim's untiring efforts, CureDuchenne was named one of the Marathon's endorsed charities.
