Studley Walking for a CureAfter raising more than $16,000 last year for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society's annual fundraiser walk, Stacy Wilder's personal goal was to raise $15,000 for this year's walk on April 22, held at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena.

Wilder, who is the managing director of project management services for Studley's Los Angeles office, led a group of 40 Studley employees last year to raise $16,500. The money raised goes to help people who suffer from multiple sclerosis.

The MS Society was founded with the goal of helping to fund research to find the cause and cure of the disease as well as offer services to those living with MS, which affects the central nervous system. Symptoms can range anywhere from mild numbess to paralysis.

"To wake up each morning and not be able to get out of bed or hold your child – it makes you want to help," Wilder said.

Last year alone, the annual fundraiser raised $1.9 million, surpassing its $1.5 million goal.
