    Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Week Fundraiser! - Public Welcome Silent Auction - 50/50 Raffle MORE THAN 200 ITEMS! where: 150 Valley Circle when: Ponte Vedra Beach FREE Monday, March 7 Admission! 6 - 9 PM For more information: 904.332.6810 [email protected] www.nationalMSsociety.org/FLN Friends, Welcome to the 5th annual MS Awareness Week Silent Auction! The funds we will raise this evening will go toward the local services and critical research to change lives and end MS forever. I’d like to give a warm thanks to the volunteer committee who work year-round to bring together local items for this wonderful event. Our deepest appreciation goes out to the community partners, shops, restaurants and other businesses who donat- ed items for the auction. We also would like to thank our hosts at Bogey Grille for their generosity and hospitality. Multiple sclerosis is a chronic disease of the central nervous system, for which there is no cure. MS disrupts the flow of information within the brain and between the brain and the body. Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 50, with at least two to three times more women than men being diagnosed with the disease. MS affects more than 2.3 million worldwide. Thanks to growing collabora- tion around the world, however, there are improved treatments leading to enhanced quality of life for people living with MS. Last year alone, the National Multiple Sclerosis Society invested $54 million to ad- vance more than 380 research projects around the world to stop MS in its tracks, restore what has been lost and end MS forever.

Inspired by the idea of Shakespeare’s midsummer forest transposed onto Miami’s ocean floor, this black‐tie affair will unfold directly on the beach, housed beneath a tent overlooking the water. The evening begins at 5:30 pm for sunset cocktails and breathtaking views, followed by a tented dinner under the stars; dessert and dancing with the 51 Miami City Ballet dancers; and an exclusive after party under the moonlight. Presented in partnership with the City of Miami Beach, the signature event is made possible by an esteemed chairing committee, including Grand Honorary Chairs Claudia and Steven Perles, who recently gifted MCB with $1 Million for the new production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream; Susan B. Kronick, Chairman of MCB’s Board of Trustees and Edward Manno Shumsky; Ana Codina Barlick, Vice Chairman of MCB’s Board of Trustees and Robert Barlick; Tina Carlo, Chair of the Partners en Pointe Committee and Dan Carlo; and Michele and Larry Herbert, Palm Beach Committee Chairs, among many other notable Miami, Palm Beach and New York philanthropists.
