Multiple Sclerosis (MS) Support Group

Don't give to the local chapter of the MS society as all of the money goes to administrative costs! As for national, about 1/2 goes towards research. Montel Williams Foundation uses ALL the money for research. that is where I give my money. I know that it is actually going towards finding a cure. You might want to look into that. Look into: The Montel Williams MS Foundation. Congratulations on your nuptials and may your future be blessed with only good things!

I would agree with the no to the local chapter of the MS society. I know that I and several friends have benefited greatly from the programs offered by the MSAA, so of the two I would definitely go with them.
I think this is a wondeful thing you are doing, and wish you all the best!

My all time fav charity is CCI ~ Canine Companions for Independence ~ http://www.cci.org/site/c.cdKGIRNq... ~ for whomever needs a service dog, not just MS'rs ...

There's NTAF ~ Nat'l Transplant Assistance Fund & Catastropich Injury Program ~ http://www.transplantfund.org/ ~ also not just for MS'rs ...

I can personally attest to the integrity of NTAF from having recently used them ~ they provide full disclosure & account for all monies collected & disbursed ~ they only keep 4% of cash / check donations for admin fees & 7% of CC donations (admin + 3% merchant fee)

With both of the above, you can specify the targeted demographic of your donation, whether it be a specific individual, a particular disease group or even a region.

I commend your generosity & what it does to raise awareness among your wedding guest as well ~ kudos & also congrats on your upcoming marriage :-)

Congratulations and what a wonderful idea.

I think I may do something similar at my wedding. There are alot of good charities out there. Just do your research.

Ever thought of starting your own????

Good luck guys and let us know what you end up deciding and how the big day goes.

I would give to NORML so all people with chronic diseases can live pain free.

I'm going to add that the Montel Williams Foundation is a good one...all monies go to research.

I agree with The Montel Williams Foundation I give to Him and it is tax deductable which I am sure that probably doesnt matter, but all money goes to research and helping others with MS none to admin.

Congrats on the wedding.

my choice for donations goes to Disabled American Veterans.
Freedom is not Free

Attitude is Everything

I have to say - I have personally benefited greatly from the National MS Society in my area. I would suggest donating to them as they are a great organization as far as I am concerned!
