PSA Campaigns for National Multiple Sclerosis Society
National Multiple Sclerosis Society:
Multiple sclerosis is an unpredictable disease of the central nervous system. Currently there is no cure. Symptoms vary from person to person and may include disabling fatigue, mobility challenges, cognitive changes, and vision issues. An estimated 1 million people live with MS in the United States. Early diagnosis and treatment are critical to minimize disability. Significant progress is being made to achieve a world free of MS.

Walk MS – New Experience
As the signature fundraising event for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Walk MS® is the largest nationwide gathering of the MS community with events across the nation and more than 100,000 participants. At Walk MS, friends, family and loved ones come together to demonstrate support and solidarity for people with MS so no one has to face this disease alone. It’s an opportunity for people with MS to be surrounded by a meaningful expression of the support system that’s critical every day of their MS journey. And we are so excited to share the new, energizing Walk MS experience with the world in 2024!
Everyone has a place at Walk MS whether they live with MS, love someone who does, or are a part of the wider community, each participant chooses a colored circle to proudly display their role in the movement and be celebrated for the important part they play. The new Walk MS experience is an unforgettable display of the support and love surrounding people with MS. It takes a whole community to raise funds because a cure is on the line – and we can’t stop until we end MS for good.
My MS Moment
Stories of life with multiple sclerosis are told through the everyday moments people with MS experience. Sometimes these moments and feelings can be hard to explain in words, so people with MS often share them in the abstract – the sense that time is standing still as they wait in their doctor’s office to hear the words “you have MS”; or the experience of waking up in the morning and feeling like their legs are encased in cement. Bringing those moments to life, and sharing them with the world, allows the stories of living with MS to be seen and understood like never before. The National MS Society amplifies the stories of people living with MS to raise awareness during MS Awareness Week and every day. We won’t stop — until the moment we’ve all been waiting for — when we find a cure for every person living with this disease. You can help ensure that more people understand what life with MS can be like and engage them to do something about it, by running these :15, :30, and :60 Television PSAs.
