Miles for Matty, Inc.

Miles for Matty is a non-profit that aims to put miles on the bucket list journey of individuals with a physical disability, acquire adaptive equipment, host group events to get out in the community, and spread awareness of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy Miles for Matty was created in August 2015 after Matt “Matty” Murray’s Mom passed away who always encouraged him he could do anything he wanted to d

espite having Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. Matt’s goal was to always to help others that live with Muscular Dystrophy check items off their bucket list. September 2020 we expanded to any individual with a physical disability to help with bucket list, acquire adaptive equipment, get out into the community with events, & spread awareness of Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy. "I myself battle Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, which has taken my muscles away, but hasn’t defined who I am or what I can do. That is winning the battle. Knowing the average life expectancy of someone with DMD, I created a bucket list a few years ago of things I want to do before I die.

is a way for me to share my story in hopes to check off more on my list, such as attending the Buffalo Bills game and watch my favorite soccer team Arsenal play in London, England. By doing this, my goal is to help others who battle this neuromuscular disease to check some off their bucket list off too."
