What is a third party event?
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society (the Society) defines a "Third Party Event" as any fund raising activity by a non-affiliated group or individual, where the Society has little fiduciary responsibilities and little or no staff involvement. These events may include two types:
- Non-affiliated - This type connects MS with an existing event, activity or program, and a portion or all of the proceeds are donated to the chapter.
- Special Interest - This is the organization of an independent event specifically designed to raise funds for MS, with all net proceeds go to benefit the chapter.
The Society is extremely grateful to the many outside persons who wish to organize events to support the research and programs we fund each year. However, only those "Third Party Events" which meet specific criteria, and legitimately and genuinely benefit the Society, will ordinarily be endorsed. Each event will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
