Why: Canada has one of the highest rates of multiple sclerosis (MS) in the world with over 90,000 Canadians living with MS.

All Canadians are impacted by MS in one way or another, with approximately 12 people being diagnosed with the disease every single day.

Funds raised support Canadians affected by the disease by funding a variety of MS Canada’s programs and services such as the MS Knowledge Network, peer support groups, and more.

Funds also support research that investigates the causes, treatments, and pathways to cures for MS.
