Believe That You Can Help
Walk MS is the signature fundraising event of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. By participating in the MS Walk you can know that you’ve shared a remarkable achievement with over 250,000 other walkers in more than 700 cities across the country. But most importantly, you’ll be making a difference by raising essential funds for research and services for people with MS.
Rhode Island Chapter Walk Locations:
Bristol: Start from Mount Hope High School and walk through historic Bristol and take in the stunning water views through Colt State Park. (6.2 miles)
Narragansett: Start from Narragansett Pier School and stroll along the scenic sea wall while taking in the ocean-fresh air. (6.2 and 3 mile options)
Providence: Start from the Rhode Island Convention Center and walk through historic downtown Providence. (3 miles)
For those of you who wish to support the cause in other ways we have a variety of Volunteer opportunities at all of the Walk sites. Please register as an Event Volunteer by clicking the link below. You may also want to visit the Volunteer Page for more information.
