Lake Party Thank You Party – Matching Gift Challenge!

Home / Fundraising & Events / Lake Party Thank You Party – Matching Gift Challenge!

Posted on: Jul 11, 2016

2016_LakePartyThis year marks the final year that Michelle and Dave Mackay will have the Lake Party at their Michigan home, as it has been sold. They will host a thank you party at the Gull Lake Country Club this August 6 for friends who have supported the FSH Society through this event over the past three years. Please join us in thanking the Mackays for their extraordinary leadership in the FSHD community by making a gift in honor of their Lake Party. The Mackays will match every gift, dollar for dollar!!

UPDATE: The Mackays have upped the ante and offered a 2-for-1 match on any gift from all first-time donors to the FSH Society, up to a cumulative $50,000!! For those of you who have never donated to the Society, this is your opportunity to make your money stretch a long way toward a cure! Every dollar you donate becomes $3 and our total goal of $50,000 becomes $150,000! And if you are a regular donor (for which we thank you sincerely!), your gift will still be matched dollar for dollar.

If we meet this challenge goal, we will be able to fully support an exciting project just recommended for funding by our Scientific Advisory Board, which will test CRISPR technology as a way to silence DUX4 in promising new mouse model of FSHD.

    You don’t seem to have a credit card picture of a MasterCard.
