Fight MS by making sure the National Multiple Sclerosis Society has the funds it needs to end the devastating effects of the disease. An easy way to make a contribution is by participating in a payroll deduction campaign at your workplace. Check to see if the National Multiple Sclerosis Society is listed as one of the options in your plan. Gifts made through workplace payroll deduction campaigns directly support the local needs of thousands living with MS in your community and research efforts to find a cure.
Remember, there is only one National Multiple Sclerosis Society and your campaign may have many choices as to whom you can donate funds in support of the MS cause. Not all multiple sclerosis organizations are the same.
If you work in the public sector. . .
Federal employees can support the National Multiple Sclerosis Society through the Combined Federal Campaign by selecting the designated code number under the Community Health Charities Federation. Other Public Sector employees, such as state, county, school, etc., will also find our local listing numbers under Community Health Charities. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society's designation code is #11409.
If you work in the private sector. . .
Your company may have an individual corporate gift program or participate through the Community Health Charities Federation or United Way. Although we are not affiliated with the United Way, you may still designate your gift to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society through the Donor Designation Program.
Don't forget to ask your company to match you. . .
Does your employer have a matching gift fund? If so, be sure to speak with them about matching your gift to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. If your employer has established an Employee Contributions Club that funds local grants, let us know. We will be happy to submit a grant request. All gifts made to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society through workplace giving are tax deductible. For additional information, please call our office at (913) 432-3927.
