We need your support more than ever. For the 2nd year, the MAD Ball has been cancelled.![]()
![]()
The MAD Ball raises critical funds to continue to provide life-changing equipment and services to help the lives of disabled and disadvantaged children and young people. The majority of the funds raised by MAD are generated from the MAD Ball. It’s a vital moment in time.![]()
![]()
We are asking you, in lieu of the ball, to please buy the gin at www.fourpillarsgin.com/products/four-pillars-gin-with-benefits and donate via the DONATE button on our Facebook page.![]()

Since this pandemic began, we have continued to help children in need, supporting over 30 families with over 50 pieces of life changing equipment and funding nearly 60 sessions of essential treatment and therapy. Items ranging from physiotherapy at $175.00 to specialised wheelchairs costing $28,000.00. We can promise you that all funds raised will MAKE A DIFFERENCE to our beneficiaries’ lives.![]()

Omar has always been to Parkville to the Royal Children's Hospital to manage living with complex disabilities. He gets the appropriate dental care he needs with specialist dentists. ![]()
![]()
Throughout this pandemic, healthcare for our most vulnerable children has been difficult. Families have an obvious concern of transmission risks in attending regular and essential consultations.![]()
![]()
On top of this, travelling with so much equipment added greater stresses for Omar's family, and difficulty in attending these essential appointments.![]()
![]()
The MAD Foundation was able to fund the much safer option of home visits for dental work.![]()

Mariam is relaxed and happy in her new specialised P-Pod beanbag, funded by the MAD Foundation.![]()
![]()
Mariam needed a chair that allowed her to sit calmly with her family, a safe option that met the needs of her cerebral palsy, epilepsy and vision impairment. The bean bag provides postural support and a shell to prevent immersion in the beanbag. ![]()
![]()
The mobile base allows her to move between rooms to be with her family. “Thanks so much for funding the p pod. It makes such a difference to her. She’s not strapped and trapped in a chair kicking and screaming. Mariam really enjoys the bean bag, she looks very calm and will sleep peacefully.” -Mariam’s mother![]()

#makeadifference #beneficiarystory
Sweet little Tiffany had unfortunate significant seizure activity at 5 months of age.![]()
![]()
This resulted in brain damage that requires full support for all personal care and mobility. Her heartbroken parents are dedicated to providing her the best care, despite real financial hardship.![]()
![]()
Tiffany’s parents are both on student visas, which means no NDIS or other government support. They were unable to afford all the equipment Tiffany desperately needed and had already taken out loans to fund therapists and paediatricians. They were very distressed by their inability to fund these items themselves and were struggling with basics while wanting to help their daughter.![]()
![]()
MAD was informed of these saddening circumstances through the Victorian Paediatric Rehabilitation Service at Monash Children’s Hospital and we were able to fund a number of items, essential for Tiffany’s safe care and development.![]()
![]()
Stroller – $14,087![]()
Standing frame – $8,407![]()
Bath Seat – $850![]()
Specialised toys – $2,000![]()
Total: $25,344![]()

This touching thankyou note from Tiffany’s mother, deserves to be shared with all of YOU who support MAD.![]()

Dear MAD Foundation,![]()
![]()
Today I have just received my daughter’s support package approval letter, so I am writing this letter to thank the MAD organisation for supporting my daughter with the necessary equipment for her rehabilitation.![]()
It has been a tough time for my family and I appreciate the wholehearted help from the doctors, nurses, and your organisation that have supported me with your practical actions and kindness. Words are not enough to express my happiness and gratitude. I’ll never forget all that we received from your organisation.![]()

Thank you so much
