Join S.T.I.R.

S.T.I.R. stands for Striving To Impact Research — something PPMD has done for over a decade now. We recognize that most families want to help in the efforts to further research, but hesitate at the commitment of time and energy. With that in mind, S.T.I.R. is a monthly giving program that lets you select a donation amount that will be automatically charged to your account each month. The monthly donations received through S.T.I.R. increase PPMD’s funding for research, by providing a more consistent and predictable income.

Each S.T.I.R. donation, large and small, combines with others to make a big impact in the Duchenne community. That is why we encourage you to ask family and friends to also join. The more individuals enrolled in S.T.I.R., the greater the impact. Fighting Duchenne is not a one-person job. There is strength in numbers. And all of these donations can really add up to help us end Duchenne.

When you join S.T.I.R. today, you can also receive a one-year gift subscription to National Geographic Kids or National Geographic Little Kids magazines. The choice is yours. Consider it our thank-you gift for enrolling in S.T.I.R.
