Description

Many of our volunteers have been asking, “What else can I do to help?” Today we are announcing a new awareness and fund-raising program called “The Stand To Cure MS.”

As part of our effort to engage and service people with MS statewide, we will be launching our new program throughout Utah. The Utah State Chapter of the National MS Society has partnered with Harmons and Select Associated Food Stores to raise awareness and funds for MS.

August 21st and 22nd families from all over Utah will join the movement and volunteer at one of 37 lemonade stands hosted by our fine partners. The stands will be open 3-7 on Friday evening and again 11-3 on Saturday.

The idea came from 7-year-old Tomas Taylor of Sandy, Utah. Tomas is an example of the great people that want to do something about MS now. You can watch his story on KSL’s website at: http://www.ksl.com/index.php?nid=148&sid=3808232

You can join us! Go to www.standtocurems.org and pick a store location near you. All the supplies will be delivered to the store location. All you need to bring is a few helpers (young or old) and a smile.

Hurry the locations will fill up fast!

More information about the program is online at www.standtocurems.org. If you have any additional questions please contact me at seth.bowers@nmss.org or at 801.424.0112.



So Thomas and I will be at the Harmon's in Roy to promote this lemonade stand. Come visit us and get some lemonade :> If you want to come help us let me know.
