Country 99 is thrilled to support the 30th Anniversary Walk to Defeat Duchenne on Sunday, May 25th, 2025!
Thirty years ago, in London, Ontario, John Davidson took the first step of an incredible journey—pushing his son Jesse’s wheelchair across Ontario. Inspired by love and determination, they sparked a movement to find a cure.
Defeat Duchenne Canada is hosting the 30th Anniversary Walk to Defeat Duchenne on May 25th, with local walks happening coast to coast.
The journey started here in our backyard. It has led to 30 years of progress across the world… but the fight isn’t over.
Help achieve John and Jesse’s dream of a world without Duchenne. Register to walk or donate today at walktodefeatduchenne.ca
Together, we can take the next step.
The Walk to Defeat Duchenne is an inclusive event that brings together families, friends, and supporters from coast to coast and is happening in a community near you! It’s Canada’s biggest fundraiser for Duchenne research and support! Every dollar raised funds research for a cure, a faster approval process for affordable life-saving treatments, and programs that empower young adults, parents, family members and health care professionals.
Whether you choose to participate individually or as part of a team, you have the option to complete 1km, 5km, 10km, or the 30 km anniversary edition of the Founder’s Challenge. Walking, striding, riding, or rolling brings us closer to having safe, effective, and affordable treatment available in Canada, and ultimately, a cure.
Together, we can create a world without Duchenne.
