As we told you in last Wednesday’s Democrat, 4-year-old Evan Procko is suffering

from Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a particularly virulent form of the disease.



You can help save the life of Evan Procko, as well as the lives of the 20,000 other boys diagnosed every year with Duchenne muscular dystrophy, a rare, devastating strain of the disease.

A fundraiser is set for Friday, May 23 at 7 p.m. at the Branford High School auditorium.

Local talent as well as professionals will entertain. A silent auction and drawings are also planned.

Tickets are $10 and may be purchased at the door or at Branford Fitness.

All proceeds go to Cure Duchenne (cureduchenne.org) and to Evan’s fund (saveourson.org).

For more information call 386-209-1911.
