>How do I raise money for Run to Stop MS?
The National MS Society has excellent online tools to help you reach your goal! First, start by setting your goal – and then tell everyone about it! We’ll help you set up your personal web page where you can put pictures, talk about why you Run, or your connection to MS. We have sample fundraising letters and emails that you can send out directly from your webpage – an then sit back and watch the dollars come in! Maybe you’re running a marathon – ask 20 people to give you $1 for every mile you run and you’ll EXCEED you’re goal of $500! The possibilities are endless. Your supporters can also support you the old fashioned way by giving you checks (made payable to the National MS Society) – and you can enter them directly to your webpage! We’ll provide you with all the details in your Run to Stop MS Handbook!
