The Nancy Davis Foundation for Multiple Sclerosis is dedicated to the treatment and ultimate cure of MS. Funding research is the core focus of the Foundation and all funds raised support our Center Without Walls program, a selected network of the nation’s top MS research centers. This nationwide collaboration of physicians and scientists are on the cutting-edge of innovative research programs, working as a team on therapeutic approaches to eradicate MS. In addition to combating MS through research in a clinical environment, we hope to increase awareness by educating the public about this mystifying disease.
Center Without Walls Program: The Nancy Davis Center Without Walls (CWW) program has provided support that has permitted the medical community to link together multidisciplinary scientific programs and expertise across the country to advance the understanding of the cause of MS and to develop new treatments. The Center is a break-through success because of the vision, insight and flexibility of these extraordinary doctors. The Center's theme is simple; communication - doctors working together toward a mutual goal. When this goal is reached, all will share in the victory. The Center’s network of the top MS institutions that have established leading, innovative research programs presently include UCSF, Harvard, Yale, USC, Cleveland Clinic, Johns Hopkins and Oregon Health Sciences University
The Race to Erase MS Gala: Every year since 1993, the Nancy Davis Foundation hosts the Race to Erase MS - a celebrity spectacular and gala to raise funds for research to find the cause and ultimate cure for Multiple Sclerosis. To date, this annual event has raised over $30 million for MS Research.
Month of May MS Awareness Campaign: “Orange You Happy to Erase MS” Month of May Campaign was started in 2008 to engage the community, heighten awareness and raise funds for multiple sclerosis research. With the support of Campaign Partners, the foundation can further its funding efforts to find a cure for multiple sclerosis and bring hope to millions of people with MS.
