30/03/2010 – Forest Solutions walks for MND |
   |
The recent passing of local Benalla identity Mr. Michael Rodger ended a long struggle for him with Motor Neuron Disease (MND). Michael was a much-loved member of our community, teaching our children Cricket and modelling caring leadership for us all.
Prior to his passing, Forest Solutions staff were inspired to participate in the 2010 Act to D-Feet MND community walk held in Benalla on 28 February. Over 1,000 people attended. Michael himself briefly attended, and his family were involved in all the fun activities of the day. The Benalla community raised in the vicinity of $150,000 for research to combat MND, increasing its generosity from the 2009 Walk. Forest Solutions provided corporate sponsorship and individuals contributed through walk participation. Michael will never be forgotten.
