ms Corporate a C h i e v e r s
A world free of multiple sclerosis.
This is the vision of the National MS Society. It is the vision that drives the members of the MS Corporate Achievers Class of 2016 to raise over $100,000 to support medical research and local programming for people living with MS in our community.
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society has committed over $25 million to support an expected 60 new MS research projects, as well as 7 MS clinical training awards. These are part of a comprehensive strategy aimed at stopping MS, restoring function that has been lost, and ending the disease forever.
This financial commitment is the latest in the Society’s relentless research efforts to move us closer to a world free of MS, and part of a projected investment of $54 million in 2016 alone to support more than 380 new and ongoing studies around the world.
Please join me in congratulating the MS Corporate Achievers of 2016 for their leadership and support of the National MS Society. To learn more about becoming and MS Corporate Achiever, please call 314.446.4171 or visit gatewayMScorporateachievers.org.

it’s Morethan a ride
“it is really inspiring when you see people with Ms riding. to me, those are the biggest champions in the world. i mean, we are a champion for a day because we struggle riding up hills. people with Ms struggle every single day with things we can’t even imagine. so, to me, they are the champions.” stephanie brendan’s back road riders captain husband lived with Ms
“bike Ms has been such a huge part of my life. it motivates me throughout the year to continue to stay strong so i can always ride for those that cannot, or to perhaps encourage someone to get out there and ride for themselves or someone they love. receiving notifications of donations and reading the well-wishes definitely ranks at the top. i truly feel honored to know so many caring and generous people.” pam, lives with Ms team united by design
“to me bike Ms is about hope and celebration. giving hope to those of us with Ms that are so desperately needing a cure while also celebrating our ability to move and make a difference.” bill, team copaxone lives with Ms
“how can you not be emotional about somebody who is blindly helping someone else, just because it’s the right thing to do? it’s those people who selflessly give of themselves to others, whether it be financial or not, that you have to admire. they have a good time doing bike, but they’re still also helping a lot of people. that’s why i stay involved in bike Ms.” shelly, Monsanto Mavericks finish line Volunteer, lives with Ms
“bike Ms means that there are people who are willing to give their time, money and extreme effort to keep people like me moving. i wish they knew how much love and gratitude people with Ms have for them. Ms bikers rock!” lisa, bike Ms Volunteer lives with Ms
“when my wife was diagnosed with Ms, we were terrified. we didn’t know what the future was going to be and we were both thinking the worst. the most amazing thing about bike Ms is there are all sorts of people who participate. to hear stories from other people who have Ms or have a family member who has Ms is really inspiring. it’s an amazing experience.” bud, team sirius wife lives with Ms
