DECA Night at Dairy Queen for MDA
Looking for supper plans the evening of Tuesday, January 24? Well, you should eat at Dairy Queen between 5pm and 8pm to help the Central City DECA chapter support the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA). Dairy Queen is donating a portion of the proceeds to DECA to donate to MDA.
MDA is trying to cure and treat more than 40 muscle-wasting disorders that trouble over a million Americans. Muscular dystrophy is a disease in which a person’s muscles deteriorate. The most common type among adults is Myotonic Dystrophy, affecting more than 30,000 people in the United States. Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy affects between 400 and 600 live male births each year in the United States and is the most common type among children. Both types cause severe muscle weakness and can affect a person’s central nervous system, heart, gastrointestinal tract, eyes (cataracts) and endocrine (hormone-producing) glands. Most children with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy are confined to a wheelchair by age 12.
Please eat at Dairy Queen on Tuesday, January 24, from 5pm to 8pm to help DECA support the Muscular Dystrophy Association!
Thank you for your support of DECA and MDA!
