Help us end Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA), the #1 genetic killer of young children, by
sending a simple tweet to your Representatives (Senate & House) and friends. It only takes
30 seconds to make a difference.
- SMA is the #1 genetic killer of young children.
- 1 in every 40 people, or nearly 10 million Americans, UNKNOWINGLY carries the gene responsible for SMA. Few have any known family history.
- There is currently no treatment and no cure, but the National Institutes of Health (NIH) selected SMA as the disease closest to treatment of more than 600 neurological disorders.
A cure is believed to be 5 years away, but we need your support.
