Nikki Pfeiffer has served as Executive Director of the Multiple Sclerosis Alliance of Southern Colorado for over a decade, fulfilling MSA’s mission of helping clients live their lives with hope, health and independence. During this time, she has greatly expanded services to local clientele and increased community awareness of multiple sclerosis.

A successful business owner in both California and Colorado, Nikki began raising money for charities with her husband and children over 20 years ago. After Nikki was diagnosed with MS, the MS Society became the family’s charity of choice, and their family-run events brought in over $100,000.

MSA soon reached out to Nikki and invited her to join the board as their fundraising director. There, she was instrumental in turning an $8-9,000 yearly casino night fundraising event into a $40,000 affair.

It was about this time that she realized MSA’s budget couldn’t afford the large administrative fees charged by the parent organization. So she helped MSA split from the parent and become a completely independent, locally-supported organization. The newly constituted board appointed Nikki Executive Director of the independent MSA, where she has served ever since, helping families cope with the financial, physical and emotional effects of MS.

Nikki Pfeiffer earned a Bachelor’s of Science degree with honors in Speech Pathology from the University of Mississippi for Women.

Lindsey joins the MSA with a background in accounting and office management. Her additional service, as a Notary Public and a paralegal for three family law firms, has given her a well-rounded skillset that will greatly benefit the MSA. But this tells only half of her story. Lindsey has a compassionate heart and has spent her life serving those around her. While working and raising four children, she went on mission trips to Honduras not once, not twice, but eight separate times!

Today she has one son serving as a Marine Embassy Guard in Europe, another son finishing up his teaching degree in Greeley, CO, and adopted twins, son and daughter, who are currently seniors in high school. In her spare time, Lindsey enjoys travelling and gardening on her five-acre ranch, where you are likely to find her flanked by her four dogs and 22 chickens. The MSA is delighted to welcome Lindsey to the team!

She’s a published writer in both English and Spanish and is the author of the soon-to-be-released book, “The AutiMom Club.”
