The MS150 is getting closer and closer. In less than 4 weeks I'll be making the 150 mile bike ride from Proctor to Blaine. I'm really looking forward to it! I'm only $298 away from my goal of $750! I rarely ask for help, but this is something that's important to me and I'd love to reach my goal. Every little bit helps!
Here are some examples of where the money goes:
$50 will help to send much-needed information to people newly diagnosed with MS and their families
$100 will help someone with MS attend the Capitol Conference to meet their legislators and advocate for improved quality of living for people with MS.
$200 will help to provide one-on-one counseling for people newly diagnosed with MS.
$300 will help a couple attend the Couple's Getaway to learn about managing the challenges MS brings to their relationship.
$400 will help send a child whose parent or close relative has MS to Youth Camp and share fun experiences with other kids who understand the challenges of living with MS in their families.
$750 will help people with MS pay for chore services to assist with tasks they can no longer handle because of the disease, like laundry or shoveling the driveway.
$1,000 will help cover the costs of home modifications and accessible equipment to keep a person with MS living independently in their home.
$2,000 will provide a scholarship to help a young person affected by MS pursue a college education.
