A big thank you to Daniela Kacev, along with her family and friends, who raised $1,450 for MND NSW from a recent Sausage Sizzle at Bunnings Eastgardens. The Sausage Sizzle was held in honour of a family friend who passed away from MND.

MND NSW was selected for the Local Matters program at Grill'd Macquarie Centre in Sydney for the month of July. Every month this program provides support to groups, organisations and causes to generate extra support and increase awareness. We were thrilled to receive strong support from the community through this program. Pictured are the MND NSW fundraising team receiving the winning cheque of $300 from a Grill'd Macquarie Centre staff member. Thank you Grill'd!

 

 

2018 has seen many community events held across NSW and ACT. Special thanks must go to each and every organiser who gave so generously of their time to raise funds for MND NSW and awareness about MND. Thank you to the following supporters:

A big thank you to DUAL Australia who selected to support MND NSW during 2018 as their 12 month charity partner raising $11,044.35. Special thanks go to Emma Morgan, from DUAL Australia, who coordinated the fundraising, Emma said of the support, "Some of our colleagues have unfortunately seen first hand the effects of MND and what it can do. They have lost friends and family and we want to help raise funds and awareness to support others suffering the same way."  

MND Australia’s research arm – the MND Research Institute of Australia (MNDRIA) - has awarded almost $4 million for new research projects commencing in 2019. Following review of grant applications by the MNDRIA Research Committee, 28 new research projects across all Australian States will be supported in 2019 in addition to funds previously committed to support an innovative, national NHMRC partnership grant (2019 – 2023).
