A&W restaurants participating in the parkland include Dauphin, Russel and Swan River. Each Teen burger purchased will set aside 2$ from your meal to support the MS society.
Trevor Shewfelt, Volunteer with the MS society, preaches the importance of this fundraiser;
“Canada has one of the highest rates of MS globally, and Manitoba has one of the highest rates of MS within Canada. So, unfortunately, almost everybody in the parkland area knows someone who has MS because there is just so much around us.”
Multiple sclerosis is a disabling disease of the brain and spinal cord. The immune system attacks the body and causes communication problems between your brain and the rest of your body.
A&W Canada's goal is to raise over $1.5 million for the MS Society through this year's Burgers to Beat MS, bringing the campaign total to more than $17 million raised in support of the MS Society over the last 13 years
