Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy

Many fans of the Dixie Chicks have inquired about a gift registry for Martie's twin daughters. In lieu of gifts, Martie has asked that donations be sent to Families of SMA as a way of honoring the birth of her twins. Please send donations to Families of SMA, P.O. Box 196, Libertyville, IL 60048.

Families of Spinal Muscular Atrophy - a volunteer driven non-profit organization founded in 1984 by parents of children with SMA. FSMA is the largest international organization dedicated solely to eradicating SMA. SMA is the #1 genetic killer of children under the age of 2 and there are more than 7 million carriers in the USA alone.

Martie chose Families of SMA after meeting a family and hearing of the loss of their beautiful son Andrew, who was only 6 months old when he lost his battle to SMA.

As a keepsake Martie will be receiving a list of donors and their donations from the charity.
