Fight MND with Dave Schilg

DIY Big Freeze

Brock-Burrum Saints are fundraising for FightMND

Hi there

We are taking the plunge this DIY Big Freeze 10 to fundraise $50,000 towards vital funds for Motor Neurone Disease (MND). 

The average life expectancy of someone diagnosed with MND is just 27 months.

We will be sending locals down the slide into an ice pool so please support us by donating to fund vital research, effective treatments and ultimately a cure for MND.

Thank you so much for your support!

Best wishes

The Brock-Burrum Big Freeze crew
