Advance MS Research. . . Give a Gift Today!
The Tisch MS Research Center of New York is dedicated to finding the cause of and cure for multiple sclerosis. Tisch MS focuses on translational research, bringing findings quickly from the laboratory into clinical application to treat symptoms of MS and to halt or reverse damage caused by the disease. The current groundbreaking research initiatives underway hold great promise, but come at a substantial cost. Tisch MS’s lean business model allows for the money raised through generous donations to go directly to research, not overhead. Your tax-deductible contribution will make a difference in the lives of MS patients and advance our understanding about the disease by helping us to continue developing effective therapies and finding a cure for the disease.

WAYS TO GIVE
Patient Fundraisers
The Development Department often receives calls from grateful IMSMP patients asking how they can help raise money for the unique and exciting research being conducted at MSRNCY. These calls are most welcome since these initiatives multiply resources to fund and therefore accelerate research.
From tag sales, to special events, to golf outings, to appeals for donations in lieu of wedding gifts, patients create many generous and creative opportunities for their family members, friends, and business contacts to give to the Center. And, in addition to raising much needed funds, these individuals also raise awareness about MS, IMSMP, MSRNCY, and the importance of the cutting-edge research and therapies being developed in our laboratory to improve the lives of patients. Because of our minimal administrative costs, money that is raised goes directly to the laboratory, its operations and projects to further our efforts in discovering the cause of, and one day the cure for, MS.
The Development Department will provide event planners with any supporting materials they need. Contact Kimberly Woodward, 646-557-3861 or kwoodward@tischms.org for more information.
