Where Does the Money Go?

The National MS Society is dedicated to ending the devastating effects of multiple sclerosis.  Funds received through Walk MS support education, advocacy, research and local programs that enhance the quality of life for people with MS and their families.  When MS strikes, people are encouraged to contact their local chapters for assistance, advice and programs.

Your Contributions Make the Difference

MS didn’t just take Diana Dye's independence, it also took her spirit. But with the help of the Gateway Area Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Diana has regained a lot more than just independence, her outlook on life has changed. With the help of the Chapter, Diana was able to install a wheelchair lift in her vehicle. Diana no longer feels like a burden and does not have to rely on family or friends to take her places.

 

Every dollar that you give will make a difference in the lives of people like Diana.   Every dollar brings us one step closer to a cure.
