An estimated 300 people gathered to raise more than $45,000 at Walk MS: Estero, Saturday at Estero Community Park.
Multiple Sclerosis attacks the brain and spinal cord, and it is the most common neurological disease leading to disability in young people.
Walk MS is an opportunity for people to come together with friends, loved ones and co-workers to fundraise, connect and advocate for people affected by MS.
The money raised goes to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.
"Walk MS is all about community - people coming together to raise money and show support for loved ones, colleagues and friends," said Cyndi Zagieboylo, President and CEO of the National MS Society. "Funds raised have a direct impact in this community, for example - our MS Navigator program. MS Navigators are highly - skilled, compassionate professionals available to connect each person affected by MS to the resources and information they need ro live their best lives."
