July 1, 2019
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society is pleased to welcome four Bike MS® national sponsors this year: Primal, PopSockets, Showers Pass and Left Hand Brewing Company. Through their partnership, these companies demonstrate a commitment to supporting our shared vision of creating a world free of multiple sclerosis.
Primal is proud to continue to support Bike MS as a premier national sponsor in 2019. Primal is a proud supporter of the nationwide “I Ride with MS” program. In addition to providing the “I Ride with MS” jerseys, Primal also creates cycling jerseys and custom apparel for Bike MS teams around the county where they give 15% of the purchase back to the team for their fundraising. Through this program, Primal has contributed $1.7 million in support of the National MS Society.
PopSockets joins Bike MS as a national sponsor in 2019. The company, who designs, manufactures and sells innovative lifestyle products, has provided more than 30,000 PopSockets Grips to participants living with MS at Walk MS, Bike MS and MS Breakthrough events across the county.
Showers Pass, a national sponsor for Bike MS, is celebrating 20 years of producing technically advanced active apparel and gear to inspire and enable the pursuit of outdoor adventure for all. Showers Pass brings its passion for making a difference to Bike MS and is dedicated to MS awareness and fundraising.
Left Hand Brewing Company is a long-term partner of the National MS Society and is committed to helping those affected by MS live their best life. Since 2008, the brewery has been a major contributor to the Society through its Bike MS team, Team Left Hand, raising more than $4 million in 11 years. The company introduced Wheels Gose ’Round, a lemon peel and raspberry gose, brewed to raise awareness and funds for Bike MS, Team Left Hand and to support the National MS Society.
“The commitment of our national sponsors to help everyone affected by MS is key to furthering our mission,” said Stacy Mulder, Vice President of Bike MS for the National MS Society. “Their generous participation provides an exceptional event experience, and ensures we are able to make the breakthroughs needed so each person with MS can live their best lives.”
