is ramping up for its first GM1 Charity Golf Outing on
October 17, 2015!
We have our Platinum Sponsorships filled, and we have 2 of our 4 Gold Sponsorships filled! We have lots of amazing donations coming in for silent auction items as well. We are working on a new car donation for our Hole-In-One prize…
The Cause: Huntington’s disease is a hereditary brain disorder for which there is currently no treatment or cure. It damages nerve cells in the brain, causing them to deteriorate along with every normal function in the person affected.
The Shepherd’s Gift, a 501c3 non-profit organization, was formed as a way to raise money for a very specific research that has been underway for over 20 years. Ovine (sheep) GM1 is a natural molecule that has shown great promise in treating and even reversing Huntington’s symptoms in mice models. This research also gives hope for neurological diseases such as Parkinson’s and Alzheimer’s. Our purpose is to get GM1 into clinical trials as soon as possible.
