Funds raised go directly towards funding research and clinical trials, improving care, funding nurses and providing quality of life enhancing equipment. Save Our Sons aims to make a difference in the lives of all living with Duchenne and Beckermuscular dystrophy across Australia. Our Purpose includes enhancing the quality of life for persons with Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy with the ultimate objective of finding a cure for the condition.
