The Walk MS event is made possible with the help of volunteer leaders. We need energetic and dedicated volunteers to be part of a group who will plan an event and fundraise for Walk MS in communities such as Palatine, Glenview, Joliet, St. Charles, Orland Park, McHenry and central Illinois (Bloomington, Peoria, Urbana). Volunteers must enjoy working with others, be detail-oriented, and have great communication skills. Volunteers meet with others in their own selected communities (mentioned above) and can do volunteer work from home via phone and email.
Walk MS is the rallying point of the MS movement, a community coming together to raise funds and celebrate hope for the future. Walk MS is a simple but incredibly powerful way for you to share in the hope for the future. Walk with us and help us achieve our goal of raising $2.7 million!
The Walk MS Event Planning Committee is a working team of volunteers who work on the following aspects of the event:
*Media and Marketing Relations
*Mission Integration
*Sponsorship and Corporate Involvement
*In-kind Donations/Incentives
*Team and Walk Participant Growth
*Logistics
*Volunteer Recruitment and Training
