Multiple Sclerosis Society Bike Ride

BikeMS has been a part of DLS’s philanthropy model for three years now! Nasrat Sepahizada and Kate Marden started the DLS tradition of fundraising and participating in the National Multiple Sclerosis Society Bike Ride in 2013. Now, we participate every year.

We are an organization committed to giving back to causes near to our hearts. That’s why donating to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society is important to us. Multiple Sclerosis is an unpredictable, often debilitating disease of the central nervous system that disrupts the flow of information within the brain and between the brain and body.

This year, we held three different fundraising events. First, we held an Afghan potluck organized by Nasrat and the AFPAK team. Then, Tyler Frattalone and Spider Kelly’s co-hosted a bar Olympics fundraiser. Finally, we held a trivia night with our recently retired Business Manager, Doug Craig. DLS always enjoys these events as they’re a great way to have fun while raising money for an important cause.

After all of the events, we began compiling all of the donations. DLS is proud to have raised $1,200 for the event this year! Nasrat Sepahizada, Josh Pierce, and Jenni McSwain represented our company at the National Multiple Sclerosis Society Bike Ride.
