Universal Bioenergy Inc. (Pink Sheets:UBRG), an alternative energy company, and NDR Energy Group, announced today that they are sponsoring a major charitable event to help raise funds for the National Multiple Sclerosis Society.

The event is being held in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Saturday, June, 12, 2010, to help increase awareness of multiple sclerosis. The program is being held in conjunction with Fervor United and the Mid-Atlantic Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society. Fervor United will also host a designer fashion show and auction. Proceeds from the event will be donated to the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, to raise funds in support of research for a cure for Multiple Sclerosis.

Multiple Sclerosis (or MS) is a chronic, often disabling autoimmune disease that attacks the central nervous system. Currently, MS affects more than 400,000 people in the U.S., and 2.5 million worldwide. The National Multiple Sclerosis Society serves the needs of more than 400,000 individuals and their families living with multiple sclerosis. The Mid-Atlantic Chapter of the National Multiple Sclerosis Society, provides services and programs to 8,000 people in Western North Carolina and South Carolina.

"Universal's sponsorship of this event is one our community and diversity program initiatives to work together with the local community to raise the level of awareness on important social and cultural issues.  I have several friends who have MS; therefore, it underscores my personal interests along with Universal's commitment to these programs, and the communities in which we do business," says Universal's CEO Vince M. Guest. 

Universal encourages the Charlotte community to come, and support the cause for Multiple Sclerosis.
