About Us

The MG Holistic Society Inc. was founded in August 2020 by Dawn Warner.  The MG Holistic Society originally started online in 2019 as a safe space for people to exchange holistic wellness information.   After two years of experiencing symptoms, Dawn was diagnosed with myasthenia gravis in 2003 after experiencing several health disparities and biases.   Dawn volunteered as a myasthenia gravis co-support group leader for several years in Atlanta.  She helped raised thousands for the MG Walks and awareness for myasthenia gravis for a decade.   She has been in remission since 2014 and found it takes tools that treat the whole person in order to improve life with myasthenia gravis.  

Dawn harnessed her personal myasthenia gravis journey (see her TEDx Talk and blog www.Snowflakewellness.com)) along with her background as an entrepreneur, certified health coach and traditional naturopath to looked at the gap between traditional and alternative health information and wanted to create a bridge of the two.  Dawn has 20 years of practice management experience of a holistic and internal medical practice so she knew it was possible.    She also wanted a place where people could discuss health care disparities and come up with healthy strategies for addressing this widespread problem.   To this end, the MG Holistic Society focuses on six key initiatives::

1. Physical Wellness
2. Emotional Wellness 
3. Spiritual Balancing 
4. Access & Advocacy
5. Financial Wellness
6. Environmental Wellness

We are pleased to offer support to groups in Atlanta, Texas, Wisconsin and other areas who do not fall under another nonprofit.  We also sponsor our own group for minorities with myasthenia gravis, an LGBTQI support group, and general myasthenia gravis group open to people everywhere. 

Our goal is to bring out of the box ideas for wellness such as our Vision Board Program, Hope's Pantry, and our Farm to Table Workshops.  Helping people live more fully with their diagnosis is our goal.   

We are excited to partner with two medical schools to help create community awareness via health and wellness day events and help future physicians have myasthenia gravis on their radar.  We are committed to participating in at least six community engagements annually in cities or rural areas.  We believe in the value of staying connected to our community.

Our MG Awareness Day and MG Wellness Retreat both provide an opportunity for people diagnosed with myasthenia gravis to come together in person with several traditional and alternative wellness organizations to gain more tools for their wellness toolbox. 

Our 501(c)(3) status was approved May 19, 2021.
