VMI raises over €96K with Duchenne Heroes

Following their finish in Eindhoven, The Netherlands, the VMI Duchenne Heroes team have completed their seven-day mountain bike tour.

A team of 38 mountain bikers and 14 support team members participated in the event and raised over €96,000 for the Duchenne Parent Project.

The Duchenne Heroes is seven days of mountain biking, 700 or 500 kilometers off road, through Saarland and Vulkaaneifel in Germany and Luxembourg, over tracks in the Ardennes, Belgium, finishing in Eindhoven, the Netherlands. The goal is to raise money for research to treat and cure the muscle disease Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.

The money raised with Duchenne Heroes goes to the Duchenne Parent Project, a parent organisation dedicated to research and finding a cure for Duchenne.
