The race to find a cure for Friedreich’s Ataxia came a step closer when the November 8 “Ride Ataxia Dallas” event raised $118,000 for research.

Winnfield grandparents Bo and Chris Walker and Jimmy and Helene Walker were proud to report that “Kate’s Krewe” accounted for $33,451 of that total and the krewe was again named the Number One fundraising team at the Dallas event.

Friedreich’s Ataxia Research Alliance has a slogan that says Together We Can Cure FA. “We firmly believe that,” said the families. “To say thank you to everyone that contributed is not enough to express our very sincere appreciation for continuing to help us in our fight to cure this disease.”
