Walk committees, I would like to thank you for offering media coverage for the 2016 Mandarin MS Walks on Sunday, May 1 2016.
This year was a huge success and we could not have done it without you! The support you offer plays a vital role in our fight against MS and we are very grateful for your kindness.
On May 1, approximately 300 people from Caledon and Orangeville came together to celebrate their hope for a world without MS and together raised over $84,000 and we are still counting!
The funds raised at the Caledon and Orangeville Mandarin MS Walk’s support the MS Society, Peel-Dufferin Chapter. Your support helps us cover the cost of mobility aids for local individuals living with MS such as wheelchairs, lifts, beds and emergency response units. In addition, we help fund in home support and house cleaning for those in need of assistance.
Thanks to your generosity and support, we will be able to continue offering these and other services to people in our community while supporting national ground-breaking research in the effort to find the cause and cure for MS.
Thank you for everything you do to advance the fight against MS. We look forward to working with you next year on another successful MS Walk!
With great gratitude,
Joanna Sullivan
Fundraising and Community Outreach Coordinator, Peel-Dufferin Chapter
