Where to send donations

Walk MS may be over, but there's still time to fundraise. Additional donations can be sent with a deposit slip to the chapter office (National MS Society, Upper Midwest Chapter, 200 12th Ave. S., Minneapolis, MN 55415), or you can use the envelope we’ll soon be sending you with a thank you for all your support. Don’t send cash. Please make checks payable to the National MS Society, and write your name and Walk MS on the memo line.
