muscular dystrophy, a degenerative neuromuscular disease. The Ladies Luncheon Newport Beach, presented in partnership with South Coast Plaza, will feature a luxury fashion presentation by

Monique Lhuillier, offering guests an exclusive preview of the latest trends for 2025. Attendees are encouraged to embrace the theme by donning their brightest sundresses and pairing them

with either elegant or whimsical hats, setting the stage for a stylish and memorable event. Guests will also enjoy a gourmet lunch and have the opportunity to participate in exciting

auctions, where they can bid on a variety of exclusive items and experiences, all in support of a great cause. In addition to the fashion showcase, attendees will gain valuable insights into

the groundbreaking research supported by CureDuchenne, with a special presentation from Dr. Michael Kelly, Chief Scientific Officer of CureDuchenne. This gathering is not just about

celebrating style; it’s about making a significant impact. Funds raised during the event will directly support CureDuchenne’s mission to invest in innovative research aimed at finding a cure

for Duchenne muscular dystrophy, offering hope to thousands of families affected by this devastating disease. “We are thrilled to bring the Ladies Luncheon to Newport Beach,” said Debra

Miller, founder and CEO of CureDuchenne. “This event allows us to engage with the community in a meaningful way, while also driving forward the critical research needed to find a cure for

Duchenne. We look forward to an afternoon of fashion, connection, and impact.” Duchenne muscular dystrophy is one of the most common and severe forms of muscular dystrophy, affecting roughly

1 in 5,000 male births. Children diagnosed with Duchenne experience progressive muscle weakness, leading to loss of mobility and early death. Currently, there is no cure, but research

funded by CureDuchenne is paving the way for new treatments and, ultimately, a cure. Tickets for the Ladies Luncheon Newport Beach are available for $250, with various sponsorship

opportunities also offered. For more information on how to purchase tickets or become a sponsor, please visit https://e.givesmart.com/events/Dsq/. About CureDuchenne: Twenty years ago,
