The Marfan Foundation is increasing its outreach north of the U.S. border based on the feedback from our Marfan, Loeys-Dietz, and VEDS community in Canada. Today, we are thrilled to announce registration is open for the 2021 Canada Walk for Victory! As we have seen, “community” is not about living in a specific location; rather it is a place where people feel a sense of belonging.

We are excited to unite our friends across Canada at the inaugural Canada Walk for Victory Celebration! This high-energy virtual party will include a spirit contest, scavenger hunt, awards, and more! So invite your friends and family to support the mission of The Marfan Foundation by creating your Walk team, asking your friends to join and support your efforts, finding your best spirit gear, and getting ready to celebrate with us on May 8.

With your support, we are able to create more awareness and raise critically needed funds to help save lives and improve the quality of life for people with Marfan syndrome, Loeys-Dietz, VEDS, and related conditions. Thank you for being a part of this program, and for continuously supporting our mission!

As we approach our 40th anniversary year, we are proud to be the premier organization in the world that provides resources, educational programs, support services, and research on these potentially life-threatening conditions. Help make a difference and create community connections by registering for the Walk for Victory!

Thank you to our Walk Leadership!
