An organization that seeks to provide a world free from multiple sclerosis, the NMSS collaborates, innovates, and leads others to achieve that goal. In addition, the society raises awareness, hosts fundraising events, and sponsors conferences to reach out to those affected by multiple sclerosis. It also has chapters scattered across the county, with the Mid-South chapter representing Tennessee, North Georgia, North Mississippi, and Eastern Arkansas.
One fundraising event hosted by the Mid-South chapter is the 20th Annual Bob Mueller MS Celebrity Golf Scramble, scheduled for June 13, 2016, at The Grove in Cottage Grove, Tennessee. The event seeks to raise more than $80,000 with the help of more than 150 players and celebrities. Tickets to the event include a pairing party at the clubhouse the day before the golf event with a special performance by musician Vince Gill.
