Rare & Share 2024: A Gastronomic Journey of Empathy

Rare & Share is a joint project by Atout, Muscular Dystrophy Association (Singapore) (MDAS) and Roche to raise awareness and understanding of Spinal Muscular Atrophy (SMA) in older children and adult patients through an immersive dining experience. Diners will be taken on a culinary journey through the daily lives of SMA patients by way of a special 4-course dining experience created by Chefs Azrin Rahman and Patrick Heuberger. For every meal, part of the proceeds will be supporting MDAS.

You can reserve your Rare & Share dining experience here: atout.sg/rare-and-share/

MDAS is committed to uplifting the lives of children and adults living with MD. As a dedicated group, we understand the challenges they face, and as such, our programmes and services are aimed at enhancing the quality of life for these families. These range from life-skills training and health education to physiotherapy, respite care and financial-related assistance. Our support ensures that every life journey of a person with MD is cared for holistically.
