💙 COMMUNITY FOR MIKE 💙
Update edit - there's still time to jump online and add to the total. These legends have managed to raise over $13000 already!!
This Sunday 21 June (perfect timing for the winter solstice) get behind Bec and Jess, alongside their partners Blair and Reece, as they take on Mike’s MND Freeze Challenge – with a true country twist.
As members of the Grifforan Pastoral team and part of the extended Grifforan family, they've had the privilege of working alongside Mike O'Halloran every day. Anyone who knows Mike knows the impact he has had on so many lives through his hard work, kindness, humour, mentorship, and unwavering generosity.
And in classic Mike fashion, he'll be taking charge of the challenge himself - tipping an entire tractor bucket full of icy dam water over the four brave volunteers. We have a feeling Mike may have been looking forward to this part just a little more than they have! Once the team are completely soaked there'll be an auction with a huge range of items to be bid on.
While there will be plenty of laughs, this event is about something much bigger than a bucket of cold water.
Motor Neurone Disease affects thousands of Australians and their families every day. For those living with MND, the challenges don't disappear when the moment is over. That's why we're coming together as a community - to support Mike, raise awareness, fund vital research, and help improve services for those affected by this devastating disease.
Every donation, big or small, makes a difference.
Let's show Mike and his family the strength of our community and get behind this important cause. 💙
