During the month of April, over 330 Burn Boot Camp locations nationwide will come together in support of the organization\u2019s mission by hosting a workout on Saturday, April 22, 2023, with 100% of the proceeds going to MDA. This year, Burn Boot Camp has set a minimum of $1,000,000 as its national fundraising goal. The fundraising will kick off on April 1 and run until April 30, 2023.

With MDA family members who live or have lived with muscular dystrophy, Hines has been a longtime supporter of MDA as spokesperson and through the NFL&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mda.org\/press-releases\/nyheim-hines-of-the-buffalo-bills-to-wear-cleats-for-mda-on-game-day-december-1\">My Cause My Cleats<\/a> campaign and other MDA events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m honored to raise awareness for the \u2018Be Their Muscle\u2019 campaign to support MDA\u2019s mission to empower people to live longer, more independent lives,\u201d said Nyheim Hines, Running Back for the NFL\u2019s Buffalo Bills. \u201cWatching my mother live with limb-girdle muscular dystrophy reminds me of how fortunate I am to be able to stay active, so I encourage everyone to come work out on April 22 to show my mother and the entire MDA community that they are surrounded by support. As I continue to say, &#8216;Together we fight!'&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA) is one of Burn Boot Camp\u2019s longest-standing national philanthropic partners,\u201d explained Morgan Kline, CEO and Co-founder of Burn Boot Camp. \u201cAs a company, we share a deep passion for philanthropy and are excited to continue building the relationship we have cultivated with MDA over the past seven years.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The &#8216;Be Their Muscle&#8217; campaign supports MDA, the #1 voluntary health organization in the U.S. for people living with muscular dystrophy, ALS and related neuromuscular diseases. Together, both MDA and Burn Boot Camp look to empower people to live longer, more independent lives. The campaign has raised over $2 million since the partnership began in 2016.
