HELP US FIND A CURE.

Joaquin's Warriors is a foundation aimed at raising awareness and money for continued research into finding a cure for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy.
Additionally, our goal is to support Joaquin and other young boys like him in their fight against this disease.
We want to make an impact in all aspects of their lives, from the various types of assistive medical devices needed to home/car modifications and medical bills..
