ick Jensen and his wife, Jenner, in
coordination with Parent Project
Muscular Dystrophy, hosted
Swing Fore the Future: A Fight to End
Duchenne, this summer in Arlington, Va.
The first edition of the charity golf
tournament took place prior to Jensen
heading to Ottawa to join his new
teammates, and the event raised
$170,000 in proceeds to
support research for those
diagnosed with Duchenne
muscular dystrophy, a life-
altering genetic condition that impacts
muscle strength and is the most common
type of muscular dystrophy in children.
"A lot of people came out and
supported it," Jensen said. "The online
auction was amazing, too. We are very
grateful for everyone, the players, fans
and so many others who supported
us. "Having my former teammates in
Washington and alumni members come
out was huge." P
