Franchise group selects corporate charity partner

Maddie Riewoldt’s Vision (MRV) was founded in 2015 by the Riewoldt family following the tragic death of Maddie Riewoldt. The Vision raises money to fund essential research to find new treatments and ultimately a cure for Bone Marrow Failure Syndrome (BMFS). With up to five million people diagnosed globally each year with BMFS, including up to 140 Australians, essential research is critical as these young people face an unknown future at the prime of their lives.

In making the announcement, MoneyQuest managing director Michael Russell, said: “We are absolutely thrilled to align our corporate philanthropic responsibilities with Maddie Riewoldt’s Vision.

“The entire sporting and spectator community was deeply moved with the sad passing of Maddie Riewoldt in February 2015. To watch the Riewoldt family rebound and establish a legacy for Maddie with such strength, dignity and conviction, is something that was incredibly inspiring.

“When making the announcement to our franchise network, I was not at all surprised by the avalanche of support and look forward to a long and rewarding relationship”.

In response, Nicky Long, chief executive of MRV, said it is not just the incredible financial support from MoneyQuest that excites the foundation. “It is equally important to have a partner who is deeply passionate about our mission to find a cure,” he said.

“MoneyQuest brings wide-ranging awareness and their commitment to a long-term relationship strengthens our ability to sustain our innovative research plight.”
