Trekking for a difference.
Every step you take and dollar you raise helps MNDSA to fund vital support services and equipment to South Australians affected by MND. From a nebuliser to help someone with MND breathe easier, to an eye gaze machine to help someone with MND communicate when they no longer have a voice, your support will allow MNDSA to continue to provide the best possible care, support and vital assistive equipment to people living with MND. Together, we can help people with MND live better for longer.
MNDSA supporters have previously completed a variety of fundraising challenges with Inspired Adventures, successfully combining adventure and altruism to raise vital funds for services that MNDSA provide to the South Australian community. Several new adventures are coming up that could see you exploring Australia and the rest of the world with others for MNDSA. These adventures are both physically and mentally challenging and integral to spreading awareness and raising funds for MNDSA’s services.
