LGMD2i

Our Cause

Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy Type 2I/R9 (LGMD2I) is a progressively debilitating disease caused by weakness and muscle wasting mainly the shoulder and hip areas. Over time, this excessive muscle wasting can result in cardiovascular, respiratory and overall physical complications typically beginning in early adolescence.

 

To date, CureLGMD2i has funded over $1,120,000 to advocacy, awareness and research programs that are working aggressively to establish a treatment for LGMD2I/R9.  We are thrilled to have partnered with several biotech companies who are working on clinical trials for this disease!!

If you are interested in contributing toward research for a cure for Limb Girdle Muscular Dystrophy, we would appreciate your donation!  Please share this website with anyone whom you feel would be interested in helping us conquer LGMD2I/R9.
