Effortless ways to help

We understand that these are tough economic times for many, and not everyone is in a position to donate monetarily or even donate their time to volunteer, especially with the extra medical-related expenses and limited income restrictions we often incur, as well as the lack of energy, pain, and weakenss.

So, aside from direct donations, volunteering, and other traditional ways to help a nonprofit, we have created and joined many sites you can use to help use earn donations. Most of them simply require you to sign up, add a safe browser extension, and then when you shop online through a merchant that is a part of the program, we get a percentage back from your purchases.  And, there are NO additional fees! 

Shopping online has become an increasingly popular way to shop and extremely helpful for those of us who have physical limitations. Thankfully, many online shopping sites donate to specific, registered nonprofit organizations, which is based upon your purchases and at no additional cost to you.

These are companies many of us shop with on a regular basis, like Amazon.com, PayPal, and Ebay. And iGive and Good Shop are linked to literally thousands of the most popular online stores like Kohl’s, JC Penney, Wal-Mart, and Walgreens. They also have many “not-so-known” online shops included as well so you can search around for the best product and price.

In addition, we are registered with Good Search which will give us a penny for each web search you do! That’s right, you can earn money for us just by searching the web!

MSU has registered with a number of sites which make these donations. All you have to do is register one time for each and a small portion of your future purchases will automatically be directed to MSU. Yes, it is small, but with the participation of a substantial group of online shoppers, these contributions will add up to help us with our programs.

Of course, there are more traditional ways you can help support MSU. Make a financial contribution, volunteer your time, and shop our store for Myositis Gear! Learn more below.

Nonprofits simply cannot exist without financial support and funding. Make a donation of any amount to help us reach our goals. Remember, even a $5 donation goes a long way to help us help Myositis patients.

Volunteers are priceless! Giving your time to help us is rewarding and fun! Sign up to be a volunteer today and get involved in all aspects of MSU’s plans. We appreciate anyone who can give us his or her time.

Shop Myositis products in our online store! We have apparel, wristbands, pens, children’s books, Emily A. Filmore’s “The Marvelous Transformation: Living Well with Autoimmune Disease,” and bundles!
