MS Run the US

Ashley Kumlien, a Brookfield, Wisconsin resident, formed the charitable organization to honor her mother, who has been fighting Multiple Sclerosis for 27 years. To raise awareness of MS and to raise funds for "MS Run the US," Ashley has set out to run 3,230 miles across the U.S. from San Francisco, California to New York, New York over a six-month time period.

The main goal of MS Run the US Inc. is to raise awareness about MS and inspire individuals across the nation to donate towards the cure of this disabling disease. Please visit www.MSRuntheUS.com for more information or to make a charitable donation. All donated funds raised by MS Run the US will contribute to The Montel Williams MS Foundation and The National MS Society.
