The FSHD Global Research Foundation invites you to the:

12th Annual Sydney Chocolate Ball

The Event

Please join us for the 12th Annual Sydney Chocolate Ball, an elegant evening of everything chocolate! Hosted by Jamie Durie OAM, this extravagant night will feature world class entertainment, a chocolate inspired menu designed by celebrity chef Luke Mangan OAM, and fine champagne flowing. Traditionally a sold-out event, this is one gala dinner not to be missed!

The Cause

The FSHD Global Research Foundation funds medical research and advocacy to fast-track treatments and a cure for Facioscapulohumeral Dystrophy (FSHD) – an aggressive genetic disease which causes irreversible weakening and wasting of muscles. Your support enables us to be at the forefront in funding world class medical research and clinical trial readiness programs, bringing hope to those living with FSHD and their families.
