MAY IS NATIONAL BIKE MONTH Updated | May 9, 2012
National Bike Month is an opportunity to celebrate the unique power of the bicycle and the many reasons we ride. Whether you bike to work or school; to save money or time; to preserve your health or the environment; to explore your community or get to your destination, get involved in Bike Month in your city or state — and help get more people in your community out riding too!
Important Dates to Remember:
Bike to School Day: May 9 Bike to Work Week: May 14-18 Bike to Work Day: May 18
What if everyone affected by MS could connect with one another? Or could connect with researchers who are working diligently to stop, restore or end MS? Or could connect with those who provide medical care or treat MS symptoms? What if everyone who cares about MS could join together in one place? Maybe, by connecting all of our knowledge, and hope, and experience, we can gain a new understanding of how to move forward.
MS Connections Go Hand-In-Hand! Follow these easy steps to keep the connections going March 12 - May 11:
Put on your orange gear and ask your friends, family, co-workers, neighbors or even strangers to hold your hand for MS.
Take a photo holding hands with others or by yourself holding your hands out. Post the photo on our Facebook wall.
Share our posts on your Facebook wall and encourage your friends to join in the connection.
After May 11, we will create an album on Facebook of all the photos submitted and begin a voting contest. The photo with the most 'likes' will receive an awesome prize! Also, each person who submits a photo March 12 - May 11 will be entered to win a prize. On World MS Day, May 30, we will unveil a fun, visual representation of MS Connections Go Hand-In-Hand. It starts with one and keeps growing!

MS AWARENESS WEEK Updated | March 9, 2012
MS Awareness Week , March 12-18, is a time for people affected by MS to connect with others, share knowledge and take action to increase awareness about the disease. Your voice and the connections you create will make the movement even more powerful.
MS destroys connections. But what if we could defy this disease with the very thing it sought to destroy: connections. And what if by connecting all of our knowledge, and hope, and experience we gain a new understanding of how to move forward.
Did you know that the average cost of someone living with MS in America is $69,000? The median household income is only $49,000! Funds raised support programs and services that directly impact the lives of those affected by MS, as well as cutting-edge research into the disease. Create powerful connections to the MS movement by recruiting your family, friends, neighbors and co-workers to donate to your fundraising. Sharing the impact that fundraising dollars have on those living with MS and connecting others to the mission of creating a world free of MS is easy: use the My Participant Center to send emails to your network.
