800-FIGHT-MS
National Multiple Sclerosis Society

Bozeman Deaconess sponsors the Walk to Cure MS. For too long, 400,000 Americans and their families have suffered the devastating effects of MS. But with 200,000 participants raising nearly $50 million at the 2005 MS Walk, we collectively brought the world one giant step closer to a cure. More than just a fundraising event, though, the MS Walk is a celebration for an entire community. The donations that pour in fund countless programs and services and research, but the event itself creates a hope-filled and fun atmosphere for everyone affected by MS while generating a greater awareness of multiple sclerosis in the public at large. Families are drawn closer together, co-workers are united for a greater good, and people gain a better understanding of what MS is and how close we are coming to eradicating it.
