EVERY DOLLAR YOU RAISE WILL
HELP STOP MS IN ITS TRACKS.
1 in 3 Australians will be directly impacted by multiple sclerosis
Since 2000, the treatment options for MS have increased from only 1 to 14 available treatments today, and that’s all thanks to research. Our researchers are certain that with more funding, it’s not a matter of ‘if’ we can stop and reverse MS, it’s a matter of ‘when’. Research not only gives hope but confidence. Confidence that there will be a future where MS no longer has an impact on people's lives like it does today.
FAST FACTS ABOUT MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS (MS)
Over 33,300 Australians have MS and 3 out 4 of those are women.
MS is most commonly diagnosed between 20-40 years old.
2.8 million people worldwide are living with MS.
Every 5 minutes, someone somewhere in the world is diagnosed with MS.
With sufficient funding, our researchers are 10 years away from stopping MS.
A HUGE THANK YOU FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK AND DEDICATION IN HELPING US STOP MS IN ITS TRACKS!
