A Legacy of Giving Back
Bull Roast: Supporting Strongest Hearts in the Fight Against Muscular Dystrophy
We are thrilled and deeply honored to announce that Strongest Hearts Foundation has been chosen as this year’s beneficiary of the Crystal Charities Stag and Bull Roast. This incredible event, the largest hosted annually by Crystal Charities, brings together hundreds of supporters for a night of camaraderie, good food, and a shared commitment to curing muscular dystrophy (MD).
The Stag and Bull Roast, a cherished tradition started by the father of R. John Vogel III, has continued to grow under John’s leadership. Each year, this gathering demonstrates the strength of a community united by the desire to make a meaningful impact.

In 2025, we at Strongest Hearts are humbled to be part of this incredible effort, joining forces with Crystal Charities to work toward a brighter future for those affected by muscular dystrophy.
