Last updated: June 8thHelp us support people with MS
We are taking part in The Novel Challenge in order to raise funds for people affected by Multiple Sclerosis (MS).
In early 2010, talented runner and triathlete, Mitchell Pyers was diagnosed with MS.
A close friend of Mitchell's recently took part in RunMelbourne to help raise funds for MS. He created the team Mitchell's Runners and a tribute page dedicated to Mitch. On this page he wrote 'Mitchell is very close to all that know him, and instantly strikes a great relationship with those that meet him. He's gentle and caring with an infectious sense of humour. An invaluable friend.'
We are Mitch's bookworms and together with your help hope to raise some much needed funds to support MS sufferers throughout Australia.
Please encourage your friends and family to support this cause. Your generosity is greatly appreciated.
Did you know?
* The average age of diagnosis of MS is just 30 years
* MS is the most common disease of the central nervous system and affects more than 18,000 Australians.
MS Australia aims to minimise the impact of MS on all individuals affected by the disease, as well as their families, carers and the community, by offering a wide range of services, equipment and support. MS Australia's goal is to assist everyone affected by MS to live life to their fullest potential and secure the care and support they need, until we ultimately find a cure.
Please consider donating by clicking on the DONATE button to the right and help MS Australia support all people affected by MS.
