The MS Mega Challenge is a fundraising event, raising money to support people living with MS.
All fundraising efforts, however large or small, help Australians living with multiple sclerosis to live well and thrive at home, work and in the community.
Organising your own event can be a great way to involve your friends, family or work colleagues in your personal challenge to fight MS. It can be as simple as you like and it's a way to give something back to those that are supporting your efforts.
Do something that you'll enjoy. Ask your friends for help and most importantly, have fun!
TOP FUNDRAISING TIP
CREATE A FACEBOOK FUNDRAISER
You can now create a Facebook Fundraiser directly from your MS Mega Challenge Fundraiser Dashboard.
On average, participants who do this will raise 15% more than those that don't!
All donations received from the Facebook Fundraiser will also appear on your MS Mega Challenge Fundraising page and be added to your fundraising total.
