Description

On April 13th, 2000, Greg Marzolf Jr. died from Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Greg lived a life with a tenacious spirit, a desire to help others, and an outstanding sense of humor. On the anniversary of his death, 24 years later, we will toast his remarkable life, celebrate how far we have come, and continue our mission to drive research and innovative treatments for those living with Muscular Dystrophy.

This year will be extra special as the University of Minnesota Medical School renames its Muscular Dystrophy Center (MD Center) the Greg Marzolf Jr. Muscular Dystrophy Center. The newly named center celebrates Greg's life and legacy and honors the longstanding financial support and partnership of the Greg Marzolf Jr. Foundation and our generous community of donors.
