Multiple sclerosis Canada Kilimanjaro climb

Date: 9th-24th October 2009

The vision of this MS Climb is to raise awareness and support for Canadians living with MS, but more specifically it is to change the experience for people newly diagnosed with MS and to put a 'new face' on it for them so they can be confident they will lead an active life with the disease, and know that they can achieve their goals through perseverance and action. Proceeds support the MS Society of Canada which enables people affected by MS by enhancing their quality of life, providing them hope for the future through research seeking treatment and a cure, and through assistive services.

If you would like to sign up for the Kilimanjaro trek this year, or indeed any of the future MS climbs, you can visit their website at http://www.msclimb.ca/ .

They also have a site that is supported by the Canadian MS Society who have details about their project at https://msofs.mssociety.ca/2009MISC/Sponsor.aspx?&PID=1067233&L=2 .
