Never underestimate the power of friendship
In November MotorOn hosted PartyOn, a fun-filled evening at Ferris Wheel in the Southern Highlands to raise money for MND research and, more importantly, to celebrate life with friends.
The MotorOn Charity Ball, a glittering fundraiser held every two years in the Southern Highlands will next be held on 14 June 2025 at the Stables, Bendooley Estate in Berrima.
PartyOn is held on the years the MotorOn Charity Ball is not on. The main purpose of the event in November was to thank MotorOn’s generous supporters by hosting a party for them at a small cost. The night's secondary goal was to raise money. As always the supporters couldn’t help themselves - raising $14,000!
About MotorOn
MotorOn was established in 2015 by a group of friends rallying together to show their support for a courageous young friend, and mother of two small children, who was diagnosed with Motor Neuron Disease (MND) in 2012.
MND is a progressive, terminal neurological disease with no known treatment or cure. Every day two people in Australia die from MND, while another two are told they have this devastating disease.
To date, MotorOn has raised over $1,000,000 for vital MND research. 100% of all money raised goes to the Macquarie University Centre for MND Research, Australia's largest MND research facility. It currently employs 90 researchers and 12 clinicians who are all dedicated and passionate about finding a cure, but they need our help.
MotorOn raises money for MND research, demonstrating our love, support and admiration for friends and family fighting this awful disease.
Never underestimate the power of friendship.
