Bright Lights is a public awareness, fundraising, and social arm of the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation. It provides important community outreach and lets others know more about this mysterious illness and the need to support efforts into finding its cause, cure, treatment, and eventual prevention. This active group offers working professionals the means to be more involved in our local community. Some Bright Lights volunteers have gone on to other roles within the Multiple Sclerosis Foundation. Others continue to help Bright Lights grow and expand.
