A Great Way to Support MS
Workplace Giving Programs provide an easy way for you to make your contributions to help support the fight against Multiple Sclerosis. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society partners with Community Health Charities in both the public and private sector. You will find our listing under the Community Health Charities Federation. If you don’t find us, ask your employer to add our name. If you have any additional questions about your contribution, please call the chapter office.
Public Sector
Federal employees can support the National Multiple Sclerosis Society through the Combined Federal Campaign by selecting the designated code number, #11409, 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.
Private Sector
Your company may have an individual corporate gift program or participate through the Community Health Charities Federation or United Way. In most areas we do not participate in the United Way, but you may ask if you can designate your gift to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society through the Donor Designation Program.
Matching Gift Fund
Many companies have matching gift and volunteer incentive programs to maximize their financial contributions to non-profit organizations. This means they will match their employees’ donations to the National MS Society, increasing your fundraising total and bringing us closer to a world free of MS. Search for your employer now by visiting www.nationalMSsociety.org/EmployerMatch.
How it works:

Visit www.nationalMSsociety.org/EmployerMatch or contact your company’s HR department to learn about your company’s matching gifts policies and procedures.
