Burn Boot Camp's 2025 'Be Their Muscle' Campaign Raises Nearly $500,000 for the Muscular Dystrophy Association

, /PRNewswire/ -- Burn Boot Camp is proud to announce the success of its ninth annual "Be Their Muscle" fundraising campaign for the Muscular Dystrophy Association (MDA). Burn Nation has raised $465,500 to date in vital support for research, care, advocacy, and MDA Summer Camp, an achievement made possible by the passion of our Members, Franchise Partners, Trainers, and team members.

Since its founding, MDA has spent 75 years championing people living with muscular dystrophy, ALS, and over 300 related neuromuscular diseases. More than 300 Burn Boot Camp locations nationwide rallied this spring on Saturday, April 12th, to power this year's campaign. New for 2025, our youngest Members under 13 hopped onto the signature Floating Floor during MDA's Hop-a-thon, completing a two-minute jump challenge to raise funds and critical disability awareness for Burn Boot Camp's kids nationwide.

In St. Louis, Burn Nation converged at Energizer Park for an unforgettable Camp built on community and purpose. Hundreds of Members and non-members joined us for a one-of-a-kind outdoor workout, an expert-led bodyweight conditioning Camp with heart-pounding music, high fives, and a special Kids Camp, all powered by a $25 donation. Attendees braved the Missouri elements to push their own limits and cheer each other on, united in the belief that "real strength comes from lifting each other up, inside the gym and beyond."

"This campaign is one of the most inspiring times of the year, as our Members and team come together to uplift a community that truly needs our strength," said Morgan Kline, CEO and Co-Founder of Burn Boot Camp. "When two missions built on community and empowerment unite, we create unstoppable momentum. Together, we're not just raising funds; we're changing lives and helping people with muscular dystrophy, ALS, and many other neuromuscular diseases live longer and more independently."

Strength is built in the work, but transformation happens in the connection, and this year's "Be Their Muscle" campaign proved it. We extend a heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined: your dedication and generosity empower MDA's life-changing work and send even more kids to MDA Summer Camp, where lifelong friendships blossom and futures ignite.

"Morgan and Devan Kline have been champions for the Muscular Dystrophy Association's mission since the very beginning. Long before Burn Boot Camp became a national movement, they were volunteering as counselors at MDA Summer Camp, connecting with families and experiencing the heart of our work firsthand. Nearly a decade later, their dedication has grown into a powerful legacy of support that continues to uplift and empower the families we serve nationwide. As we celebrate MDA's 75th anniversary, their leadership through the 'Be Their Muscle' campaign exemplifies the momentum and progress we've built over generations, and we're so grateful for their partnership! They've rallied an extraordinary community that shares their passion for strength, unity, and hope," said Ruth Ann Dailey, Chief Development Officer, Muscular Dystrophy Association.
