QUANTUM® RIDES WITH TEAM ANSYS IN FIGHT
AGAINST MS
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - June 17,
2011, This past weekend, representatives from Quantum® Simulations,
Inc. joined over 1,100 riders in a two-day, 150 mile bike ride from
Slippery Rock, Pennsylvania to the shores of Lake Erie in Conneaut,
Ohio as part of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society MS-150 "Escape
to the Lake 2011 Presented by FedEx Ground" fund raising event.
Quantum® employees, Paul Miele, Director
of IT, and Al Renshaw, VP of Marketing and Sales, participated in
the ride. Quantum® was a sponsor of Team Ansys, a team of fourteen
riders who raised over $8,600 to fund research to find a cure for
MS and help those individuals with MS lead more fulfilling lives.
"The National MS Foundation is doing so many good things to make
a difference for those with MS," comments Al Renshaw, VP of Marketing
and Sales at Quantum®. "Hearing the stories about those battling
this debilitating disease truly represents the strength, courage and
inspiration of the human spirit and serves as a constant reminder
of all the gifts, such as good health, we often take for granted.
We ride in honor of those that can't."
Every hour someone is diagnosed with
multiple sclerosis. A gift to the National MS Society funds research
and programs to help those living with MS. 93¢ of every dollar
goes directly to this mission. If you would like to make a donation
to the MS Society, please visit the Team
Ansys page.
