Fundraising Ideas & Past

Organize a fundraiser to fund groundbreaking research initiatives, support programs and advocacy for our Cure SMA Canada community!

Having members of the community host fundraisers allows Cure SMA Canada to continue to support the SMA community and continue on the path of finding a cure.

Whether it is a Walk-n-Roll, a gala or a lemonade stand, fundraisers help us achieve our goals as the Cure SMA Canada community.
