Our mission.
The Megan Palmer Foundation is dedicated to supporting individuals living with muscular dystrophy through community, advocacy, awareness, and meaningful support that helps no one face the disease alone.
Raise Funds
At the heart of our mission is a commitment to raising the resources needed to fight Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy. We bring our community together through exciting fundraising events, including our signature golf tournaments, where every participant plays a direct role in driving change.
The funds we raise go straight to work — supporting research, patient resources, and the broader fight against this disease. Together, we are proving that a community united by purpose can make a real and lasting difference.
Build Awareness
Too many people have never heard of Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy — and that is something we are determined to change. We work to shine a light on this disease, helping patients, families, and the general public understand its impact and the urgent need for progress.
Greater awareness means earlier diagnoses, stronger support networks, and a louder voice advocating for those who live with LGMD every day. By sharing stories, spreading information, and engaging our community, we are making sure LGMD can no longer be overlooked.
Progress Research
A future free from the devastating effects of Limb-Girdle Muscular Dystrophy depends on the science happening today. That is why we are proud to partner with the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA), one of the most trusted and impactful neuromuscular disease organizations in the world.
Every dollar we raise is directed straight to the MDA, where it fuels cutting-edge research dedicated to advancing treatments and improving care for those living with LGMD. By channeling our community’s generosity through this powerful partnership, we are helping to accelerate the discoveries that could one day transform — and even save — lives.
