Shoppers can earn 20 percent discount

FRANKENMUTH, Mich. – Oct. 23, 2017 – Finding a cure for a debilitating disease – Multiple System Atrophy (MSA) – is the focus of the annual Bavarian InnHoliday Open House on Friday, November 10 in Frankenmuth. Bavarian Inn Restaurant Castle Shops, Frankenmuth Cheese Haus, Covered Bridge & Leather Gift Shop and select stores at Frankenmuth River Place Shops will all be participating.

Shoppers giving a cash donation to the Defeat MSA Foundation will receive a 20 percent discount at participating locations. In addition, shoppers may also earn the discount by bringing canned and non-perishable food items to the open house, which will be donated to a local food pantry.

“Our business philosophy for many years has been to support worthy organizations that are helping people in need,” said Amy Zehnder Grossi, general manager. “This year we want to support the Defeat MSA Foundation to help medical researchers find a cure, while providing our guests with a festive way to start the holiday season.”

MSA is a rare, rapidly progressing neurodegenerative disorder that affects the brain and impairs the systems that regulate blood pressure, heart rate, and the bladder. There is neither a cure nor therapy to slow down or control MSA.      

Shoppers should arrive early on Nov. 10 and begin their day by making the cash or non-perishable food donation at any of the locations listed below. Shoppers will then receive a 20 percent discount card valid for use while shopping at the following locations and times:

About Defeat MSA Foundation

Realizing that much of the current attention is focused on more widely known diseases, Multiple System Atrophy is overlooked. MSA patients are confronted with a dim prognosis and left with few options. The purpose of Defeat MSA is to receive and administer funds to develop effective treatments to combat the debilitating effects of MSA, to foster promising research in an effort to slow the progress of MSA, to nurture collaborative studies into the underlying causes of MSA, and to raise awareness and promote understanding about living with MSA.
