Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed financial and moral support!
So far we have raised $555, which is over 20% of my fundraising goal! I can't even begin to tell you how much I appreciate the generosity and positive spirit of this community... this sense of community is the main reason I am so passionate about this site.
THANK YOU again to those who have contributed, and THANK YOU in advance to those who have yet to do so!!!!!
-Terry

I made a small donation to Terry's effort.
MS & stem cell research
People may also want to get involved politically since the stem cell research bill just passed the House and Bush has threatened to veto it. Stem cell research may not be the answer to MS, but who knows, it may help with MS or cure other diseases.

Roxanne,
Thank you so much for your generosity!
In addition to their research, the MS Society is doing quite a lot to help people who are living with MS right now. Examples include educational materials for children whose parents have Multiple Sclerosis, a lending library, training materials for certified nursing assistants, personal care attendants and home care aides, couseling services for couples and families, ADA and employment-related advice for employers and employees, and more.
Thank you again for helping make all this possible.
-Terry

Bike riders can participate in the numerous MS 150s around the country. I'll be riding in the Memphis area one on September 18-19.
MS is a personal cause for me also, as I have family members with MS.

That's excellent! The PA Dutch 150 is the weekend my brother moves into his new house, but I'm likely to sign up as a crew volunteer for the City to Shore 150 from Philadelphia to Ocean City NJ and back. They specifically list photographers as needed volunteers.
How is your training going?

If you've already donated or are thinking about it, how about some FREE prints?
Anyone who has donated but not yet claimed their free print, please PM me with your selection(s)!

I made my donation to the cause. Hopefully this is the last year we have to do this... hopefully NMSS will find the cure this year and there won't be a need anymore. But I'll donate keep donating if it's needed.

Thanks I did read this thread.
I don't how how to go about doing this but I would like to donate the money I receive from my prints. Do I have to inform the site council?
Also, I would like to donate whatever money I earned from my prints for the whole month of June. I don't have much prints, only three. Here's the link:
//www.dpcprints.com/my_images.php
And if anyone would like to have a copy of any of my pics in my portfolio, please email me. Iwill have the prints ready and all proceeds I'll get this June will go to the MS cause.
//dpchallenge.com/portfolio_mgr.php
It is an honor to be contributing something for this cause.
