Band Against MS is a 501 (c)(3) nonprofit public charity, committed to providing educational information for those living with Multiple Sclerosis, and funding programs helping those living with the disease. Nationally acclaimed recording artist Clay Walker established BAMS in February 2003, because he wanted to help others living with the same disease he has battled since 1996. More information about BAMS is available at www.bandagainstms.org.

The five goals of the Foundation include:

  1. To help provide hope for those living with MS;
  2. To educate those living with MS about the importance
    of working with a doctor to help manage MS;
  3. To encourage individuals living with MS to seek appropriate treatment;
  4. To fund research seeking a cure for the disease; and
  5. To fund programs providing assistance to people living with MS.

This site is primarily to provide information for BAMS Bike Team members and their friends / families / donors. The BAMS Bike Team is currently active in Minnesota, Nebraska, Tennessee, Texas, and Washington State.
