What Is Change Duchenne?
Change Duchenne is a fundraising campaign from the Little Hercules Foundation that makes giving simple, automatic, and impactful. By signing up to Round Up through our trusted partner, Harness Giving, your debit or credit card purchases are rounded up to the nearest dollar. That “spare change” is donated directly to support access to Duchenne treatments, care programs, and advocacy efforts.
Example:
Coffee = $3.62 → 38¢ donated
Gas = $44.76 → 24¢ donated
Groceries = $28.41 → 59¢ donated
It’s that easy. Small change adds up to life-changing impact.
Why It Matters
Duchenne muscular dystrophy is a rare, fatal genetic disorder that weakens the muscles of children and young men, taking away independence and shortening lives. While there is no cure yet, research and new treatments are giving families more hope than ever before.
Every coin you give through Change Duchenne fuels progress:
Fight for access to treatments.
Family support to improve quality of life.
Advocacy to bring more awareness and resources to the fight.
Be Part of the Change
On your own, a few cents might not feel like much. But together, our community can create real change for Duchenne families.
Imagine 1,000 people each giving just 50¢ a day — that’s over $15,000 a month to change lives.
