The MS Society will be holding its annual 2-day cycling fundraiser the weekend of September 14-15th. The event starts in San Francisco at Levi Plaza, over the GG Bridge, into Mill Valley, over the hill to drop into the Stinson Beach area. It is a stunning ride, all to raise money for Multiple Sclerosis.
We need first aid support along our route to ensure our riders are comfortable and safe. You need a current CPR certificate and basic first aid training. We will supply the rest. Any emergency, 911 will be called.
We will provide all supplies, volunteer t-shirt, service/learning hours and meals.

Mission Statement
The mission of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society is to end the devastating effects of MS.
Description
Founded in 1946, the National Multiple Sclerosis Society supports more MS research, offers more services for people with MS, provides more professional education programs, and furthers more MS advocacy efforts than any other MS organization in the world.
We do this through the extensive research we support to find the cause, cure and improved treatments of the disease; the comprehensive services we provide to people with MS and their families; the professional education programs we offer to assist health care providers better serve their MS patients; and through our advocacy efforts on state and federal levels to encourage public policies supportive of the needs of people with multiple sclerosis. This is why we at the National Multiple Sclerosis Society are here.
Volunteers are vital to the work of the National MS Society. We welcome volunteers with a wide range of talents and skills. There is only one requirement: to want to do something about MS NOW. Your valuable skills and fresh perspectives will make the Society a stronger and better organization. There are so many ways to contribute, whether through advocacy, programs, fund-raising or special projects. We can always use your help.
