PJ’s for PJ
Because of how successful PJ’s for PJ has been in raising funds and awareness for DMD, we are expanding beyond schools this year! Get your office or corporation involved in the fight to end DMD.
Join us in taking part in our 3rd annual community wide pajama* day on December 16th.
Pietrosfight.org was created to raise awareness and funds for potential treatments, and hopes of a cure, for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD). Contributions from last year’s event directly funded research which enabled clinical trials to take place. Pietro is currently receiving an infusion once a week to complete his 96-week clinical trial of Eteplersin. Eteplersin received FDA approval on September 19, 2016.
To continue to aid in this process, we ask that you join us on December 16th by wearing pajamas* in exchange for a suggested donation of $5 dollars to Pietrosfight.org. We will wear PJs to celebrate the spirit of childhood that we hope to preserve for Pietro Joseph and other children diagnosed with DMD. It’s never too early to teach our children the importance of giving.
*In lieu of pajamas, some schools, businesses & offices opted for a dress down day, holiday sweater day, or encouraged students and staff members to wear a crazy hat/socks/outfit or even a specific color of clothing. We encourage and appreciate any form of support. **If December 16th does not work, feel free to choose another day on your calendar.
