If I have learned anything it's that it takes a community or two to really raise awareness and make an impact so we've formed an event thru Walk MS: Your Way and our way is to 'Climb The Peak for MS' and it's an event that brings together a community of passionate people to connect and raise funds to change the world for everyone affected by multiple sclerosis.
MS is an unpredictable and often disabling disease. Our team is uniting to end MS forever, and we invite you to donate or join our team!
We've set an ambitious goal because with your support, we can get there. The money we raise will help drive groundbreaking research, provide life-changing programs and guarantee a supportive community for those who need it most.
Help us reach our goal.
