A walk to benefit the National Multiple Sclerosis Society will take place on April 8 at Reston Town Center.

Multiple sclerosis is a neurological disease that attacks the brain and spinal cord and often leads to the disability of young adults.

Organizers expect a turnout of 800 people. A fundraising goal of $200,000 has been set. The walk is expected to begin at 10 a.m.
The event’s lead sponsor is Sanofi Genzyme, a biotechnology company based in Massachusetts.
