Why It Matters
Each year, more than 1,000 Australians are diagnosed with MND, a disease known for its rapid progression and profound impact on individuals and families.
At Macquarie University’s MND Research Centre, researchers are leading critical work to better understand the disease, develop new therapies, and improve patient outcomes.
Thanks to the incredible generosity of our supporters, in 2025 we raised $240,000 and this year we are aiming to double that impact!
Your support helps turn research into real hope.
