Last September the inaugural Rock to River Row raised $2,500 in support of MND NSW. Over five days the team of Jeff Huyben, Stuart Ord, Adam Thompson and Brett Wheeler rowed 500 kms on rowing machines in locations from Uluru to Alice Springs. We thank the team for their stellar effort and support.

Thank you to the following supporters.

  • Wendy Whitmore and the Central Coast Fundraising Group who raised $1,047 from their Christmas Gift Wrapping fundraiser.
  • Warners Bay High School, Year 12, 2017 who donated $500.
  • Victoria Haberley who donated $2,600 from a carnival dunking booth and a comedy night.

 

Students at Casino High School enjoyed some end of year fun to raise money and awareness for MND, and soak some teachers in the process! An Ice Bucket Challenge was held which raised $911. Thank you to the staff and students.

What an inspiring way to make a difference! Grace is a beautiful young lady who decided to shave her head to help create awareness for MND. Alison, Grace’s mother, said, “My beautiful best friend has been hit with this disease so my amazing daughter Grace will shave her head to raise awareness.” Thank you Grace and Alison for your support.

After nine years of holding dances to raise awareness and funds for MND NSW the Illawarra Combined Seniors Dance Group held their last dance in 2016, and donated $900 from their final event. Thank you to Betty Davies who has been organising these fundraising events since 2008.
