 GALA 2010

April 10, 2010

 The 2010 Annual Gala at the Renaissance Esmeralda Resort & Spa in Indian Wells will include a fine dining experience, live entertainment and dancing.  A special part of the evening is the exclusive “ASK” program to raise awareness of the multiple sclerosis population in the Coachella Valley and the opportunity for guests to make a donation in support of the programs and services offered at no charge to the participants.  ACT for MS fund-raising is directed 100% to the needs of Coachella Valley individuals living with Multiple Sclerosis.  This local fund-raiser, which results to benefit local community members (our neighbors, friends and families)remains a popular event in the Valley’s Spring social calendar.


"Our fund-raisers give us the ability to help our clients,"

Founder Gloria Greer said. "We are discovering more and more how needed we are, and as always, all funds stay in the Coachella Valley to help those who have multiple sclerosis."
