WALK TO CREATE A WORLD FREE OF MS

2012 Walk MS Dates and Locations

NEW DATE FOR WALK MS, DETROIT - SUNDAY, APRIL 29TH
We recently learned of a conflict on the original date of the Walk MS event in Detroit. This other large event would affect parking at Comerica Park, the walk route and multiple other factors. After careful thought and consideration, a decision has been made to move the event to Sunday, April 29th. We are confident that this change will provide participants with the best experience possible as we join together to raise awareness and funds toward our mission of creating a world free of MS. If you are already registered and are not able to join us on Sunday, April 29th please contact us by email at walk@mig.nmss.org or by calling 248-936-0343 and we will be happy to transfer your registration to another Walk MS location that better accommodates your schedule.

BELIEVE THAT YOU CAN HELP
Be there because every movement you make and every dollar you raise supports the mission to create a world free of MS. Walk MS has raised $623 million nationwide since its inception in 1989. There is no fee to participate, but walkers are encouraged to fundraise because every dollar raised brings us one step closer to the cure. This movement is by and for people with MS. Join others that care about people affected by MS by fundraising and recruiting others to join you.


JOIN THE MOVEMENT
Walk MS is our rallying point, a time and a place for us to stand together and to be together — to help raise critical funds that support cutting edge research, drive change through advocacy, facilitate professional education and provide programs and services to help people with MS move their lives forward. By participating in Walk MS you can know that you've shared a remarkable achievement with over 250,000 other walkers in more than 600 cities across the country. But most importantly, you'll be making a difference by raising essential funds for research and services for people with MS. There are over 18,000 people in the Michigan Chapter service area living with multiple sclerosis. We walk for them, for their families and caregivers.

TEAM UP FOR MORE FUN!
Forming a Walk MS team is an opportunity to share a great experience with friends, family or co-workers. To dramatically increase the effectiveness and boost the FUN of your fundraising, you should consider starting your own Walk MS team. Collecting donations for Walk MS is always easier (and more fun!) when you have team members to help. For more information about teams please contact us at walk@mig.nmss.org

MS IMPACTS US ALL
