Let’s Move Forward Together.
Multiple Sclerosis affects people in the prime of their lives, between the ages of 20 and 50. Every hour someone is newly diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. More than 2.5 million people worldwide live with this unpredictable disease. The symptoms of MS are different for everyone – the only certainty is that it will affect yet another person every hour of every day.
Currently there is no cure for MS. The money that is raised will be used to find the cause, treatment, and ultimately the cure of multiple sclerosis. The money is also used to provide education, information, direct financial support and scholarships to individuals and families living with MS.
Join the Finish MS: Grandma’s Marathon Team in the movement to do something about MS now!
