Golf to create a world free of MS.
The MS Longest Day of Golf is held during the months of May and September with numerous host golf courses waiving their greens fees for the day to allow registered golfers to raise money for the National MS Society.

MS Society mourns the passing of former Michigan Chapter President, Patricia McDonald
With great sadness I share the news that our former Chapter President, Pat McDonald, lost her battle with lung cancer and passed away this past January.
Pat served people with MS for more than 25 years in our Chapter initially as Programs and Services Director and then for more than 20 years as Chapter President. A strong advocate for services for people with MS, Pat was a devoted friend and mentor to many of us.
The Chapter will be happy to forward condolence cards and emails to Pat's family. Please send them to my attention at the Chapter offices: 21311 Civic Center Drive, Southfield MI 48076 or via email: info@mig.nmss.org .
Make a Memorial Gift in Honor of Pat McDonald.

Chapter President
