Mission
TriForMS exists to fundraise, educate and motivate

Fundraise:
We fundraise by hosting athletic events, doing speaking engagements, and coaching.
We disperse funds that help fund MS research, help augment MS patient health insurance and to offset some the athletic training expenses.

Educate: 
We believe the more MS patients learn the more they will take control of their therapy. Our educational focus is concentrated on MS patients and how exercise can fight into their therapy. 

Motivate:
We believe that as an MS patient, you can thrive, not just survive. We do motivational speaking and seminars that help you see how you can thrive, and turn your adversity into an advantage.
