To the Editor:
On behalf of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society North Florida Chapter, local staff and our event volunteers, we want to extend our appreciation and give a huge thank you to the more than 200 Beaches-area restaurants, merchants and service providers who, for the 14th consecutive year, have generously supported our MS Awareness Silent Auction in Ponte Vedra Beach.
Monday’s event resulted in another fundraising record, boosting the amount raised in more than a decade to over $430,000. One hundred percent of the proceeds since 2013 have supported programs and services for the 18,000-plus North Floridians impacted by MS.
The outpouring of generosity by area residents has been incredible and means we are much closer to a world free of MS.
Bruce Reid,
MS Awareness Silent Auction co-chair
