A Quarter of a Million Dollars Raised !
THANK YOU for being one of the 1,300 participants and volunteers that took to the streets on Sunday, April 27th in the 17th Saskatchewan Blue Cross Super Cities WALK for MS. Your participation and fundraising efforts will help tremendously in the search for a cause and cure for MS! Among the setbacks for those who have MS is a loss of the ability to put one foot in front of the other. The Saskatchewan Blue Cross Super Cities WALK for MS affirms our commitment to end multiple sclerosis. When you WALK, you move the world closer to a cure.
We had an incredible day celebrating the continuing success in our fight to end multiple sclerosis. More than 1,300 dedicated WALKers and volunteers turned out to be a part of another amazing WALK in Saskatoon. We counted on you, and you came through with flying colours helping us raise a record $256,000!
