The personal cost to those living with MS is enormous. Every day people living with MS wake up not knowing whether they will be able to cross the road, go to work, look after the kids, avoid being placed into a home, or worse.
Supporting their everyday needs takes something that’s a lot easier to measure: money. Every $50, $100 or $200 you can give makes a real difference.
At MS Queensland, we provide care, support and hope. Whether it’s therapy sessions, accommodation, free phone advice or case coordination to ensure people living with MS live as independent a life as possible.
Why Fundraising is Important
All money raised by our riders in the Enerflex MS Brissie to the Bay Bike Ride, goes directly to helping people with MS - the associated costs of staging such a large public event are covered through the payment of entry fees. This means we rely on fantastic individuals like you, to get involved and help raise much needed funds for the 18,000 people in Australia living with Multiple Sclerosis.
Your donation to MS Queensland helps us to care for people living with MS and fund research into a cure for the disease.
