It all started in the summer of 2004 with an idea to give back to those MS patients that are less fortunate than I. Since then, MS Cure Fund is all about us patients...
it is run & managed all by MS patients (Founder & Board Members), professionally advised (attorneys & accounting firm), Steering Committee & Volunteers, and continues to strengthen with all the positive, active, functioning patients that have moved out of DENIAL into ACCEPTANCE and continue long, healthy, fulfilling, successful, productive lives living with Multiple Sclerosis.
We are the FACES of MS (Strength) and give HOPE to those that have just been diagnosed.
In our efforts, we are trying to create awareness about Multiple Sclerosis through educational seminars, peer programs and events along with raising much needed FUNDS directly for RESEARCH.
Our funds provide researchers and scientists the ability to study the disease and learn more about determining its causes.
