AN UNFORGETTABLE RIDE. AN UNBELIEVABLE DESTINATION. A WORLD FREE OF MS.BIKE TO CREATE A WORLD FREE OF MS
DEAR COLLEAGUE:
I’m sure you know the adage about the connection between social responsibility and business success: “If you do good, you’ll do well.” Well, the National Multiple Sclerosis Society’s Bike MS event is a great way to do good! I’m writing to ask you to consider joining us—along with hundreds of companies of all sizes—in forming a corporate Bike MS team.
The National MS Society has been in existence for more than 50 years, and we’ve found that they know what it takes to put on great events—events that help companies almost as much as they help people with MS!
They’ve got America covered. There are 100 Bike MS events nationwide. Cyclists—many of them on corporate teams—raise millions of dollars to fund research, drive change through advocacy, facilitate professional education, and provide the connections that people with MS and their families rely on to move their lives forward.
WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?
For starters, with 400,000 Americans diagnosed with MS—2.5 million globally—there’s a strong chance you’ll directly help somebody you or your company depends upon. Then there are the business benefits:
∫ Exercise combats absenteeism and escalating health-care costs
∫ Training together for a Bike MS event builds the same teamwork skills as a pricey retreat
∫ Customers and employees reward socially conscious companies with an asset you can’t buy at any price: loyalty
The National MS Society makes it easy to get involved by providing training tips, fundraising tools and organizational expertise. I know a good bit about management and I know you do too, so take it from me: these events are superbly managed and have provided so much “ROI” back to our company.
The enclosed fact sheet will tell you more. Please call me if you have any questions about the many ways your company will do well and do good by forming a Bike MS team. I’m confident you’ll be as thrilled with the partnership as we are!
SINCERELY,
