Thank you for visiting my Multiple Summits for MS (MS4MS) page, supporting the Rocky Mountain MS Center! I'm setting off on a 14-er hiking adventure this summer to help raise money in support of research and services for those with MS and their loved ones.

As you may know, our little family was impacted by a MS diagnosis in the Spring of 2022. It's taken awhile to get to a point of understanding the full scope of this diagnosis and the Rocky Mountain MS Center was an invaluable source of support to us for those first few confusing and grief-stricken months post-diagnosis.

This summer, I'm re-kindling my love for climbing Colorado's tallest peaks and aim to summit 5 of the 58 fourteeners (mountains exceeding 14,000 ft in elevation) in the state.

There are a few different ways you can lend your support:

- you can join me for a 14-er hike or training hike as I prepare! hiking is always better with a good friend or two.

- pledge per peak! Pledge a small amount ($1-$30) per peak summited or you can offer a total lump sum toward the overall goal of $1,000.

- you can share this page and mission with other people who you think would like to get involved!

Thank you so much for taking the time to learn more about this goal and for considering getting involved. Any amount of support is deeply appreciated.

About the fundraiser:

MS4MS is an annual campaign raising awareness and support for the Rocky Mountain MS Center. Teams and individuals will join the MS4MS Flat 14er in Denver on June 15, and many more will also hike trails, walk laps in their own neighborhoods, set out for the peak of a 14er, or any other challenge they choose. Throughout Colorado and around the country, we're conquering our own summits for a great cause!

The Rocky Mountain MS Center is a Colorado-based nonprofit organization that provides comprehensive and integrated wellness care, supports people and their families living with multiple sclerosis (MS), offers educational programs and resources, and conducts cutting-edge research. Funds raised for MS4MS will support the programs and services of the MS Center and people in our community whose lives have been impacted by multiple sclerosis.
