Tribute Funds

MND Association Tribute Fund logo People who have MND or know others who do, often have a sense of determination - a determination to do something to support people with MND, and work towards a cure for this remorseless disease.

We now have over 630 Tribute Funds. Many many thanks to all their supporters.

An MND Association Tribute Fund provides a special way of doing just that. Whether you know someone who has the condition, or wish to remember the life of someone who was special to you, we would be honoured to create a Tribute Fund in his or her name.

It's simple and quick to set up

And enables anyone - family, friends, and colleagues - to contribute to the individual's Fund in whatever way they wish. Whether it's running a marathon, holding a coffee morning, receiving gifts into the Fund in lieu of presents, or making a simple personal gift perhaps on a special anniversary - all are gratefully received and importantly, greatly appreciated for the thought behind them.

In response to supporter enquiries, we can now also record a legacy pledge in a new or existing Tribute Fund. When we eventually receive the gift, its value will be included within the Fund's overall fundraising total together with any other gifts and donations already received. Please email Tribute Fund enquiries to request your copy of our "Tribute Fund with Legacy" booklet.

A fitting tribute to someone special

Every contribution will act as a tribute to the person in whose honour the Fund has been created, while giving important financial support to the work of the MND Association. We provide personal, regular updates so you can see how your specific Fund is growing.

Optional Online Service

Once a Tribute Fund has been set up, it can also have its own website, where friends and family can leave messages and memories, and donate securely to the Fund online. It’s easy to create, with a step-by-step process that anyone with Internet access can set up.
