Gabe's Journey
With one phone call on June 6, 2008, our hopes, plans, and dreams changed forever. Our beautiful 3 year old twin boy, Gabe Griffin, was diagnosed with a terminal disease called Duchenne. We did not realize it at the time, but this disease has no cure and is tremendously under funded. Outside of the Jerry Lewis Telethon, there is hardly any funding going to this number one genetic killer of all boys in the world. 1 in every 3500 boys are born with this disease and because of such little funding, they have become known as “The Lost Boys”. Our HOPE is that this stops tomorrow through your help and people like you. It is our HOPE that these boys will no longer be known as “The Lost Boys” but become known as “The Cured Boys”. Please explore our site and read Gabe’s entire journey.

About Us
MISSION
It is the mission of Hope for Gabe (H4G) to ensure a cure for Duchenne is found in time for this and all future generations of boys inflicted with this horrible disease, including Gabe. Our #1 goal is simple – to eradicate this disease! We will do this by directing all fundraising dollars into the hands of lab researchers or other organizations that are determined to find a cure. Hope for Gabe will raise these research dollars by organizing and developing creative fundraising efforts among friends, family, and concerned volunteers, while at the same time, serving as an information database for the most current clinical trials and research programs taking place.
We decided that while we are embarking on this new journey of life as a family, we are going to make the most of it! We wanted to create a legacy for our son no matter what happens down the road. That legacy will be the Hope for Gabe Foundation (Hope for Gabe Inc.). We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization (Federal tax ID# 27-1240341). We can’t wait to see what a difference Gabe and his foundation make in this role! With your help, our HOPE is to End Duchenne!
