Serhat's Story

Muhammed Serhat is only 18 months old… Yet he is already fighting Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD).

Every child deserves the chance to run, play, and grow up healthy. Serhat dreams of enjoying the same future as other children.

To reach the gene therapy available abroad, he urgently needs your support. Every donation, every share, and every prayer brings him one step closer to treatment and a brighter future.

Please become Serhat's hope. Together, we can help change his life.
