Our Philosophy for Volunteerism
Volunteers are integral partners in the movement to end multiple sclerosis. Volunteers across the country contribute resources, time, knowledge, skills and leadership that infuse the organization with energy and passion that will move us closer to achieving a world free of multiple sclerosis.

Volunteers are involved in all aspects of the Chapter, from helping with mailings, fundraising events, to participating on committees and boards. You can work from home, via phone or internet, in an office or at events.
