Over $5 million was raised during the Big Freeze 5 campaign thanks to donations of the Australian public and those who purchased the beanies.

Of the 74,036 people that attended the Queen's Birthday clash between Collingwood and Melbourne, it could be said that well-over half the crowd were donning their blue 'Fight MND' beanie to show their support of the day and the cause.
