Champions to CureDuchenne is an annual tradition that brings together Austin’s finest for a spectacular evening under the stars. The event features gourmet food, cocktails, casino games, and live and silent auctions for a night of fun and purpose!
The event benefits CureDuchenne and raises vital funds for gene editing research and CRISPR/Cas9 technology that will be transformative for Duchenne patients. Through the generous support of the Austin Community, Champions to CureDuchenne has funded more than $1.7M in research to date. And we are just getting started.
CureDuchenne is a national nonprofit that raises awareness and funds research to find a cure for Duchenne muscular dystrophy. Duchenne is the most devastating and lethal muscular disease in children.

ABOUT DUCHENNE
The most common and fatal form of muscular dystrophy, Duchenne is a devastating, progressive muscle-wasting disease most commonly found in young boys. Affecting 15,000 children in the US and 300,000 worldwide, there is currently no known cure for Duchenne.
-
Caused by a loss of dystrophin, a protein that helps keep muscles intact.
-
Early stages make simple tasks difficult.
-
Later stages cause failure in heart and breathing muscles.
-
Most suffering from Duchenne are wheelchair-bound by age 12.
-
Many don’t survive beyond their 20s.
-
This disease knows no cultural, economic or social boundaries.

THE RESEARCH
The proceeds of the night will fund gene editing research that could be transformational for Duchenne patients. It would be a one-time treatment using CRISPR/Cas9 technology that would help correct a majority of the genetic mutations in Duchenne.
