Bring the Big Freeze to your Community

Make a Donation

Motor neurone disease (MND) is a devastating disease. More than 2,000 Australians live with MND. Their average live expectancy is just 27 months following their diagnosis.

Today, two Australians will die from MND. Two more will be diagnosed.

Your support can change this. By donating to FightMND, you’re helping fund cutting-edge research aimed at fast-tracking treatments and driving breakthroughs toward a cure.

The fight isn’t over. During Big Freeze 11, let’s live it forward for those battling MND. Together, we can make a difference. Donate today. Your contribution brings us closer to a future free from MND.
