I didn't see anything about this, did the people who were local have awareness of this walk?

First CCSVI walk successful

Despite the unusually cold weather, the group raised $3,500.

Steve Garvie, president of the foundation, was pleased with the event and said approximately $1,000 in pledges are still coming in.

The money will be used to treat Multiple Sclerosis patients with an angioplasty-type surgery to unblock veins.

Garvie said the next fundraising event is a dinner and dance.

This makes so much more sense than individual scattered fundraising. This groups is collecting funds in an organized way and has an application for financial assistance (link above).

If people could devote their time and energy to assisting one central cause it could benefit everyone. :-)
