Top Food & Drug customer, employee and corporate contributions to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society are more than $83,000 this year after results from April’s Walk MS were tallied.

Top Food & Drug and its sister, Haggen Food & Pharmacy stores, were presenting sponsors of Walk MS, which was conducted by the MS Society’s Greater Northwest Chapter on April 2-3 at eight sites through Washington.

To spur awareness and contributions, Top Foods offered paper MS Feet for $1 apiece at checkout stands March 2-15. Stores also sold reusable bags and other products that were designated for Walk MS and many Top Foods employees raised funds by participating in Walk MS.

The MS Society’s Greater Northwest Chapter serves more than 12,000 people living with MS in Western and Central Washington, Montana and Alaska, plus 72,000 others, including friends, caregivers and healthcare professionals. Walk MS donations also fund research to find a cause and cure for the disease.
