Your Donation Empowers Families

The iconic MDA Shamrocks pinup program is one of the nation's largest St. Patrick's Day fundraisers. What started in a local pub more than 40 years ago has since grown to thousands of retail locations nationwide and has raised more than $349 million for MDA. When you support the MDA Shamrocks campaign, you’re helping to empower people we serve to live longer, more independent lives.

Meet 2025 MDA Shamrocks Ambassadors

  • A picture of Will, sitting on a couch in a blue shirt.

    Meet Will

    Will is adventurous, full of life and curiosity. He loves to learn and talks endlessly about ABC’s and 123’s. His favorite role in life so far is being a big brother to “Baby Paul.” He also loves to spend time in the pool! Will’s family learned that he had arthrogryposis in-utero, which they later discovered through genetic testing, is a symptom of SMA-LED2. His family advocates strongly for genetic testing and says it has given them so much clarity.

  • A picture of Grace, standing outside on a fall day.

    Meet Grace

    Grace was among the first students to receive the prestigious MDA Scholarship, a merit-based award granted to ten exceptional students who demonstrate leadership and dedication to the neuromuscular community. Now a Bioethics student, Grace is channeling that same passion into advocating for increased accessibility on her college campus. Her ultimate goal is to influence disability-related policy to create a more inclusive world. Grace hopes to inspire others by showing that with determination, anything is possible.
