Over the past year, we’ve been inspired by the generosity, creativity and commitment by the local community to raise funds in support of MS Society SA & NT. Year 5 and 6 students from Wynn Vale School ran a Market Day event, taking responsibility of the design, production and sales of items. Their hard work and enthusiasm resulted in a remarkable $2,000 raised.
With the amazing support of family, friends, and local businesses, June Wagstaff hosted a beautiful jewellery showcase and raffle, raising an incredible $1,200. June was overwhelmed by the community’s response. The cause is close to her heart as her grandson Ben lives with MS.
Long-time fundraiser, Grant Combe, once again hosted his annual Rolley Park Speedway Exhibition highlighting the park’s 30-year history, including hundreds of photographs and several speedway cars on display. It was a walk down memory lane for many attendees and they shared how joyful the experience was.
We’d also like to extend our gratitude to Ramsay Clinic Adelaide Nursing Team, Kristy Salvemini and Georgie Edwards, who each hosted their own unique fundraiser.
No matter the size and scale of the fundraiser, it all makes a genuine difference, and we’d like to say a big thank you to everyone who supported these efforts!
In addition, we’re proud to announce that the MS Life Changer Lottery is back. With an amazing $150,000 prize pool up for grabs, there has never been a better time to buy your tickets!
Money raised through lotteries and fundraising activities help us to provide vital services and support in South Australia and the Northern Territory. Funds raised here, stay here, in this community. With your support, we can ensure the long-term future of critical care for people living with multiple sclerosis in SA and the NT. This includes delivering vital services such as, nursing, physiotherapy and occupational therapy, while continuing to strengthen our neuro community.
If you’re looking for support on your MS journey, please reach out to our team at msassist@mssant.org.au. We’re here to help.
We look forward to updating you again soon.
