Event Description
The Huntington’s Disease Society of America (HDSA) is excited to announce the 2024 Greater North Texas Team Hope 5K Run/Walk to be held on November 9th at Rose Rudman Park. Team Hope events represent the largest local opportunity for members of the HD community to come together with friends, family members, neighbors and the community at large to raise necessary awareness and funds to support HDSA. Huntington’s disease (HD) is a fatal genetic disorder that causes the progressive breakdown of nerve cells in the brain. It deteriorates a person’s physical and mental abilities during their prime working years and has no cure. Since their inception, Team Hope Walks have raised more than $14 million and involved tens of thousands of participants from local communities across America. Proceeds from Team Hope support the mission and programs of HDSA, the premier nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the lives of everyone affected by Huntington’s disease. From community services and education to advocacy and research, HDSA is the world’s leader in providing help for today and hope for tomorrow for people with Huntington’s disease and their families. In the battle against Huntington’s disease no one fights alone. At HDSA, family is everything.
