Do you love to lead people, brainstorm, build stuff, write articles or have meaningful conversations? We’ve got an opportunity for you.
Volunteers are the heart of the National MS Society. Without them—without you—there are so many tasks we couldn’t accomplish. And there are so many purposeful ways to contribute to the MS movement. You can provide office support, check in participants at an event, submit articles to our blog, assist with our marketing efforts, or even provide leadership on one of our event planning committees.
Are You Part of an Existing Group, Club, or Organization?
If so, your group can make a big impact at one of our events. For example, a group of bank volunteers might fill all the volunteer shifts for registration at Walk MS. Or a cycling club could manage a Bike MS rest stop, and decorate the space however you’d like to make it super fun.
Volunteering Can Be More than Your Time
The time you donate as a volunteer is priceless. We encourage you to consider fundraising, too. Simply by sharing your experience and passion to stop MS, you can inspire others to support you. Money raised at events goes to fund programs and services that impact the lives of people living with MS right here in our community, as well as fund national research.
We Also Offer Long-Term Opportunities and Internships
To see available positions, go here.
There is Really Just One Requirement to Be a Volunteer:
The desire to do something about MS...now.
