MS Canada points out that this country has the highest rate of multiple sclerosis in the world.

1 in 400 Canadians are living with the disease and this week there is a chance to raise funds and awareness for MS. 

A&W Canada locations provide an opportunity to make every bite count with Burgers to Beat MS Day on Thursday, August 21st. $2 from every A&W Teen Burger sold across the nation that day will support Canadians affected by MS. 

You don’t have to wait until Thursday though as donations can be made right now online at burgerstobeatms.ca.
