2009 Stairclimb for Multiple Sclerosis

Hi Guys,



I am taking part in the 2009 Step Up for MS Stairclimb in order to
raise funds for people affected by multiple sclerosis. Multiple
sclerosis is the most common disease of the central nervous system and
affects over 18,000 Australians. The event is a timed race up 1096
stairs of Perth's Tallest Building, Central Park.



Did you know?

* The average age of diagnosis of MS is 30 years old

* MS affects three times more women than men.

* An estimated 18,000 people in Australia have MS.



The MS Society of WA (MSWA) is a not-for-profit charity organisation dedicated to assisting people living with MS.

MSWA aims to minimise the impact of multiple sclerosis on all
individuals affected by the disease, their families, carers and the
community by offering a wide range of assistance, services and
equipment.



We want to enable people with MS to maximise their participation in the
community; to improve community awareness and understanding of MS; to
advocate for all people with a disability; and to work towards finding
a cure for MS.



Please DONATE by clicking on this link and help MSWA to help all people affected by multiple sclerosis. Every dollar counts.



Thanks
