How does doing a 10km Walk and Talk make a difference?
By taking part in the Motherless Daughters Australia Walk and Talk and fundraising, you’re providing valuable support services and initiatives to connect and support women and girls whose mums have died.
The following services will be funded with the money raised from the MDA Walk and Talk:
- Awareness and support programs
- Commemorative initiatives
- Research and thought leadership
- Events to connect motherless daughters
- Educational resources
- Private online community
How your fundraising helps motherless daughters
Around 1.2 million women in Australia have experienced mother loss before the age of 44. Your 10km Walk and Talk fundraising will provide events, resources, and support programs to raise awareness and connection opportunities for women, girls, and children as they cope with the everyday, and life’s milestones without their mum.
