If you're looking for a place to send some "thank you God" money

I am profoundly grateful to have work I love, colleagues I respect, clients I admire, and a life that is full of amazing.  I never want to take that for granted.  One of the ways I try to remember to say "Thank you God** for all of this" is to make donations. Some small. Some not.

Here's the place I'm sending money today.

I found it via this email from a friend:

The NYC MS Society is beyond amazing. They helped me with paperwork and campaigns to cut my hospital bills by half, they helped me fight with my insurance company to ensure they cover my medication (that would be close to $1,300 a month without insurance), they gave me the medication for free for 12 months when my first insurance company wouldn't cover it, they sent nurses to my home free of charge when I didn't feel well and they've been a support system since day one.

I would never ask you for money, nor do I expect you to donate. I know that one's greatest fear when donating to an organization is "well, what will they actually DO with the money?" However, if you make a donation to any charity this year, I urge you to make it to the NY MS Society, because I know from experience they go above and beyond what they are required to do.



**To whomever you thank when you realize it's been a very blessed day.
