MS Research Australia has been recognised as the 2015 Charity of the Year.
MS Research was founded 10 years ago to tackle a lack of research into a disease that affects more than 23,000 Australians. MS Research Australia has raised more than $24 million for medical research since 2004.
Organisers of the awards said MS Research Australia was chosen as Charity of the Year because of the impact it had made in its short existence.
