The Marine Corps 708 Guardian Foundation is a proud sponsor of Multiple Sclerosis.
In MS, the immune system attacks the sheath ( myelin ) that covers nerve fibers. It causes communication problems between your brain and the rest of your body. Eventually it can cause permanent damage of the nerves , causing many symptoms.
Symptoms range from numbness and tingling, tremors, weakness to paralysis and disability.
The Guardian Foundation will donate 25% of its fundraising special events to the NMSS.
Many Hernando County residents are afflicted with Multiple Sclerosis or know someone with it.
The Marine Corps League Guardian Foundation is donating in hopes the research will find a cure for all afflicted.
