CLOSING THE GAP
FOR MS CARE IN
NORTHWEST ARKANSAS
Today, June 1, kicks off Walmart and Sam’s Club’s seasonal associate matching campaign.
June 1–July 4, 2026 matching available up to $10,000 in personal contributions per associate, subject to campaign rules and caps.
We turn community events, fundraising, and everyday generosity into support for multiple sclerosis research and local care access in Arkansas.
THE NEED
Thousands of Arkansans live with MS, but specialty care access is limited across the state.
THE SOLUTION
A Northwest Arkansas MS Care Collaborative will connect patients with coordinated specialty care, local partners, and support services.
THE GOAL
Raise $50,000 on May 15, matched by another $50,000, to help fund the clinic’s first year.
THE OUTCOME
Northwest Arkansas MS Care Clinic is expected to serve 300 patients, helping more Arkansans access coordinated MS care closer to home instead of traveling long distances for specialty support.
Big Ideas, Real Impact
As Seen on Telethon Day
These news segments highlight the community momentum behind our Closer to Home effort and the urgent need for improved access to specialized MS care in Northwest Arkansas. Through local media coverage, Rampy MS Research Foundation was able to share the story behind the MS Care Clinic initiative, explain why this work matters, and invite the community to be part of the solution.
