About SPF

The Spastic Paraplegia Foundation (SPF) is a nonprofit, all-volunteer organization founded in 2000 and the beneficiary of the Magnificent Mile Races. Its primary mission is to find a cure for two upper motor neuron disorders -PLS and HSP-- and to raise awareness of their devastating effects. Some 92% of its funds go to this mission. Since its inception, the Foundation has awarded more than $2 million in research grants.
