MDA Summer Camp Supply Drive

Yesterday we held our 2nd annual 'Supply Drive' for the upcoming MDA Summer Camp. The local MDA office is sending a handful of local kids with Muscular Dystrophy to this amazing camp near Indianapolis.

The MDA summer camp is the highlight of the year for local kids suffering from Muscular Dystrophy. We were once again asking you to help us collect supplies to be used during this live-changing week.

You still have the opportunity to donate to the supply drive. Feel free to bring any supplies/donations to the MDA office located at 3101 N. Green River Road #710. Or you can call Shanna at 812-479-6550.
