The National Multiple Sclerosis Society, Minnesota Chapter can provide limited financial assistance to address emergency needs that affect the physical or emotional well-being of a person with MS who is or becomes registered with the Minnesota Chapter.
The Emergency Assistance program can provide up to $500 to cover all or part of the cost of the emergency need. The program will not cover an ongoing need, the cost of medical bills or medical expenditures.
