About Us
MS Bridge Across America has no paid staff. All of our efforts are supported by volunteers, and 100% of the funds raised goes to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society to support research.
MS Bridge Across America
MS Bridge Across America was founded to engage bridge clubs throughout the United States to raise funds and awareness to fight multiple sclerosis, and to help people like our son who is living with MS. The proceeds from MS Bridge Across America events benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
I invite you to join us in ending the devastating effects of MS by donating an item that could be used as a raffle prize or auctioned off at a bridge tournament. Your donation of a gift, service, or gift certificate is tax deductible for the fair market value. The Federal Tax ID number of the
National Multiple Sclerosis Society, a 501(c)(3)organization, is 13-5661935.
Who We Are
We are avid bridge players from the Philadelphia area with 3 sons and 4 grandchildren. In 2001 our youngest son, Alan, was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis (MS). We had previously lost a friend to this disease so this was a terrifying time. We educated ourselves as best we could and tried to get him the best treatment. He is on medication for MS and thankfully his condition is somewhat stable. Many others are not so fortunate.
Feeling the need to do something about this disease, we decided to raise money for MS. We thought that bridge tournaments would be a great venue. We poured our efforts into getting MS Bridge Across America off the ground. We were recently profiled on the National MS website.
