SMA Angels Charity, Inc. is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit public charity. In 1997 Cassidy and Skylar Swanson were diagnosed with the severest form of SMA. The diagnosis… “they will never sit, walk or stand and they will die before the age of two”. Family and friends wanted to help and SMA Angels Charity was formed.
On June 9th, 2006, Cassie left this earth to follow her dreams. Cassie died suddenly of respiratory failure, which is the number one cause of death in children with SMA. Skylar celebrated her 22nd birthday this year. Skylar is a true warrior who continues to fight and live her life to the fullest. Cassie and Skylar have touched many lives and have been an inspiration to all who have known them.
