About this Chapter

Share

The National MS Society helps each person affected by MS in our area address the challenges of living with MS. We help by raising funds for cutting-edge research, driving change through advocacy, facilitating professional education and providing programs and services that empower people with MS and their families to move their lives forward.

Our staff and volunteers are dedicated to achieving a world free of MS. Through our chapter’s support services and educational programs for people living with MS and their families and friends, we help connect people in our local communities who want to do something about MS now.

  • We offer many programs — including professional counseling and peer facilitated support groups, educational programs and seminars, referrals to neurologists and healthcare professionals, national teleconferences and internet programs, services for the homebound, and social and recreational programs to assist people with MS and their families in leading productive and fulfilling lives.
  • Our community support helps to fund our local programs and accelerate worldwide research projects to ensure no opportunity is wasted. Generosity can come from anywhere. We are thankful to our members and their friends, corporate partners and the general public who help us raise the money to move us closer to a world free of MS.
The Greater Carolinas Chapter serves over 18,000 individuals living with MS in 97 counties in North Carolina and all of South Carolina. With offices in Raleigh, Greensboro and Charlotte, we help each person address the challenges of living with MS through programs, services and research funding.
 
Every single breakthrough matters for people affected by MS. That’s why the Society continues to fuel research and put more resources in the hands of those who need it most. Last year alone, we devoted $100 million to connect more than a million people affected by MS to the support, information and resources they need to move their lives forward. We invested $34 million to support 320 new and ongoing research projects around the world. And in 2019, we’ll continue to push for more breakthroughs as we stop MS in its tracks, restore what has been lost and end MS forever.
