Our amazing FightMND community
In any family, a diagnosis of MND is completely earth-shattering, but in our family, MND follows us like a shadow. It's our mission to make this the last generation of our family that will have to face MND without a cure. Bumblebee drives from town to town, checking in to as many events as possible, raising awareness and asking people to donate.
FightMND provides hope. MND is relentless and so too must our fundraising efforts be.

Our journey, inspired by our courageous mum Lorraine's 18-month struggle with MND, led us to channel our grief into fundraising to help in any way we could, as we found it difficult to just sit and watch mum decline overtime. In just two years, we've raised over $60,000, a testament to the unwavering support of our community and the organisation's dedication and help.

The worst bit is that only the best people seem to get MND, and this was my motivation to run 100km and raise $21,897 for FightMND in support one of the best people.

Malvern Primary really enjoyed fundraising for Fight MND. It encouraged students to get outside on a Wednesday and Friday morning, to run/walk for a purpose and to raise money for a wonderful cause. With the help of our awesome parents, we also sold beanies and socks every day, which helped us raise $ 37,638 to help make a difference.

In Memory
Hey, I'm Archie, I'm 14 and I've organised 5 FightMND fundraisers over the last 4 years raising over $20,000. For my most recent 27 challenge, I completed a 27km run. I love running, and I love helping people so it's a good combo for me. We all need to do more to help beat this beast of a disease, 27 months being the average life expectancy from being diagnosed is not ok, and it has to change. I just want other kids to know, don't let your age stop you from doing something to help others, if you're passionate about something, go all in.
