Multiple
sclerosis interrupts the flow of information from the brain to the body
and stops people from moving. The National MS Society exists to make
sure it doesn't.
Every
hour in the United States, someone is newly diagnosed with multiple
sclerosis. MS affects more than 400,000 people in the U.S., and affects
more than twice as many women as men.
Through its
50-state network of chapters, the National MS Society funds more MS
research, provides more services to people with MS, offers more
professional education, and furthers more advocacy efforts than any
other MS organization in the world. We are people who want to do
something about MS now.
- We are a driving force of MS research, relentlessly pursuing prevention, treatment, and a cure
- We address the challenges of each person whose life is affected by MS
- We mobilize the talents and resources of the millions of people who want to do something about MS
- We are activists
And with your help, we will raise $1.25 billion by the end of 2010.
Join the movement and together we can end multiple sclerosis.
