Campaign.

As
an organization that is 96% self-funded, we rely entirely on our corporate
and community supporters to ensure we can help those in need.
Every dollar
of support means that someone affected by MS will have a better quality
of life and each contribution brings us closer to the cure.
Are you interested in becoming a supporter of the MS Society of Canada,
Atlantic Division? We’d like to introduce to you to a few ways
you can leave your legacy and help end MS. Please contact the Atlantic Division at info.atlantic@mssociety.ca or
by phone at 1-800-268-7582.
A Leadership Gift to the MS Society enables you to provide meaningful
and long-lasting support.
Leadership Gifts are:
- Over $1,000
- In the form of cash, securities, property, trusts, or gifts-in-kind
- Undesignated or designated to research or services.
- Personal, or take the form of corporate donations or sponsorships.
The MS Society is dedicated to acknowledging the significant support of
our donors. We offer a variety of benefits for
these generous gifts including recognition in our annual report, invitations
to special events and updates throughout the year.
In uncertain economic times, legacy gifts are a simple and inexpensive way
to make a lasting contribution to the fight against MS. There are
many different options and we would like to help you make the best personal
choice.
Some planned gifts, such as bequests, do not require any funding during
your lifetime and others, such as gifts of securities, can help eliminate
capital gain tax.

Over the last few decades, there have been incredible advances in the knowledge
and treatment of MS. Leading researchers are no longer asking if the
cure will be found but rather when.
However,
this small group of leading researchers is retiring and a limited
number of young scientists are making multiple sclerosis their
professional focus.
Progress
towards further discovery is at risk.
To
address this urgent need, the Multiple Sclerosis Society has
launched Canada’s first ever MS capital campaign.
This
bold new movement called endMS will raise $60 million over the
next five years to recruit, train, support and retain the next
generation of MS researchers in Canada. |

It will also revolutionize
the way the medical community collaborates and accelerate the pace of research
activities to find a cure and improved treatments in the shortest possible
time.
