The walk is a fun, family event that spreads awareness of Multiple Sclerosis and raises money to end this currently incurable disease. We have many volunteer shifts, so volunteers can choose what would be of interest, as well as their time commitment. Volunteers receive a volunteer shirt, snacks and service hours, as well as the sense of accomplishment in supporting their community. Many of the walkers live with MS or have someone in their family living with MS.
