Our History

Our History

Our History

Seeing a need for holistic education and research, diversity and inclusion for adults diagnosed with Myasthenia Gravis, we answered the call and formed  an organization to provide sensible holistic wellness solutions.  Healthcare disparities experienced by our community was also a driving force in helping others.  


We are a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization!   

Our Mission

Our History

Our Mission

“Our mission is to empower patients and improve life with myasthenia gravis. “

We focus on advocating,  connecting, engaging and educating our adult Myasthenia Gravis community about healthy lifestyle tools, spiritual balancing, mental wellness, herbs, supplements and products that may be beneficial to improving their overall wellness.

We focus on advocating,  connecting, engaging and educating our adult Myasthenia Gravis community about healthy lifestyle tools, spiritual balancing, mental wellness, herbs, supplements and products that may be beneficial to improving their overall wellness.   We want you to use food as medicine. We believe gut health is vital to our wellness. 

Support our mission

New Program

Hope’s Pantry offers items for daily living to our MG community.  These items can be picked up at our events and support meetings in Georgia and Wisconsin.  Since our launch in June 2023 we have given away over 400 items!  The items we have available change monthly and differ by location.   We will always have toiletries available you. 

Current available items in Georgia include:  Portable fans,  fish oil,  lotions, shampoo, conditioner, toothbrushes, sunscreen, mobile phone cup holder, supplements, eye patches,  cooling towels and various seeds for planting vegetables and herbs.  We are seeking donations for canes and electronics toothbrushes.

P. - People

E. Equitably  


By helping people equitably, we strive to reduce disparities, provide the necessary support our community needs to thrive and fill the gaps of needed items that can affect every day life living with myasthenia gravis.  We recognize the cost of health and wellness can challenge most wallets.  After hearing from several people about how they are juggling food, treatments, supplements, deductibles and items for self care we had to act.

Keep your Cool

Keeping yourself cool in the summer months is essential. Heat and humidity can trigger myasthenia gravis symptoms for some people diagnosed with MG.  Here are a few tips:

  • Stay hydrated drink 1/2 weight in ounces
  • Wear natural sunscreen (zinc oxide)
  • Stay in doors to avoid excessive heat exposure
  • Wear loose light weighted clothes
  • Stay in the shade
  • Wear a cooling vest
  • Use a cooling towel (provided at our awareness day events)
  • Use Ice compress on your neck
  • Use your air conditioner or fan
  • Try a portable neck fan
  • Wear a cap and sunglasses to protect your eyes
  • Schedule outings in the early morning when it isn't as hot

 Do you have an action plan in place to combat the heat?
