 Multiple Sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune disease that affects the Myelin sheath that coats the spinal cord. When the Myelin is stripped away from the spinal cord, the body begins to short circuit, leading to a number of different reactions that are unique to each individual. A person with MS might lose the ability to walk or to hold onto items, might experience confusion or difficulty making decisions and ultimately, might need the assistance of caregivers to get through the day. MS causes emotional distress, possibly the loss of employment and unfortunately, at times, the break-up of families.

Our founding member of the 'MS Road to a Cure Charity Car Show' has been living with MS since 2008. Fast forward to today, she currently has minimal use of the right side of her body including her right leg and arm. She has been an active member of the car community for over a decade and has never let her handicap slow her down. Her goal is to bring awareness to MS and to seek help within the car community by incorporating her passion for cars with her passion to help and educate others about MS. As a full time mother who is always on the go, she continues to be an inspiration to all within the MS community.

The goal of the MY MS FAMILY Charity is to raise funding to alleviate the financial burdens faced by many of its members by subsidizing the purchase of accessibility equipment, as well as the cost of local transportation needs and household cleaning services.

My MS Family facilitates educational seminars on topics including nutrition, exercise, medications, financial planning, MS research, mental health and stress management. In addition, My MS FAMILY contributes to the MS research projects at the St. Michael’s Hospital MS Clinic and the Sunnybrook Hospital MS Clinic, both located in Toronto and serving the Chapter’s membership.
