PPMD 2018 Community Engagement Opportunities

Parent Project Muscular Dystrophy (PPMD) knows that it will take every single member of the Duchenne community and beyond to help us achieve our ultimate mission – to End Duchenne.

One of our four key organizational objectives is to educate the global Duchenne community and to share up-to-date information about treatment and care options with all members of the Duchenne community.

In 2018, we are pleased to once again present our local community engagement effort, The EndDuchenne Tour in addition to hosting our Annual Conference. Please join us as we continue to lead the most comprehensive effort to engage and educate the Duchenne community.

1. Annual Conference Sponsorship Opportunities

PPMD’s Annual Conference is a unique convergence of industry partners, scientific leaders, medical providers, people living with Duchenne, and their families. 

This meeting has grown to be recognized worldwide as the foremost Duchenne muscular dystrophy patient advocacy meeting.

Additionally, the PPMD Annual Conference provides the opportunity to be recognized for playing a leadership role in the Duchenne community.

When you sponsor this conference, you associate yourself with an organization that holds the highest ethical and financial standards. Sponsorship of the PPMD Annual Conference means so much more than just your corporate name and logo on a sign. It signifies a commitment to advancement in the Duchenne field and a philanthropic commitment to society. It means, like us, you want to end Duchenne.

We invite you to partner with PPMD and help make the 2018 Conference a successful and unforgettable meeting.
