What a night! Mental As Anything at The Old Butter Factory in Telegraph Point, an event which raised $2,000 and promoted awareness for MND. A big thank you to Tracy Brown, Chontelle Shore and to everyone who worked so hard to make the night a success. Thanks also to the generosity of the many local businesses who donated prizes and services.
Perfect weather and 112 teams entered made for a great day of netball and just over $7,600 raised for MND NSW. A very big thank you to Monica Jacobs and the Manly Warringah Netball Association who organised the gala day which was also held for MND NSW in 2014. The day included lots of netball games, merchandise sales, donations and a raffle of a large MND puppy. Thank you also to all the girls who played and to everyone who participated in the day.
In March 2014 Baden’s grandmother Nicola was diagnosed with MND. After watching her slowly deteriorate and seeing first-hand how MND NSW assisted her in lending equipment, Baden and two of his school friends decided to hold a fundraiser at school. The fundraiser which raised $1,000 was held in 2016 and included a raffle and the sale of MND merchandise. The MND puppies sold each lunchtime were very popular!
