At Josef Seibel NZ, we believe that every step matters — and some steps matter even more.
That’s why we’re proud to stand with Motor Neurone Disease NZ, supporting their incredible work to help New Zealanders living with motor neurone disease (MND) make the most of the precious time they have.

MND is a devastating, fast-progressing neurological disease that slowly takes away a person’s ability to walk, talk, eat — and ultimately, breathe. With no known cure and very limited treatment options, the diagnosis can feel overwhelming and isolating.

In Aotearoa, the average life expectancy after diagnosis is just 36 months. Needs change quickly, often faster than the health system can keep up — but thanks to MND NZ, no one has to face it alone.

We’re asking you to walk alongside us in this journey. Together, we can make a real difference.

💙 As part of this campaign, we will donate $15 for every full-priced pair of shoes purchased on our Josef Seibel website directly to MND NZ.
So when you choose a pair of shoes, you’re not just walking in comfort — you’re walking for a cause that truly counts.

If you’d like to go even further and contribute more, you can also make an additional donation directly to MND NZ. Please find their donation page here:

When you support this campaign, you’re helping MND NZ deliver life-changing support in four key areas:

👣 Support Services — providing families with essential equipment, counselling, and personalised care so they can navigate each stage of the disease with dignity and comfort.

📖 Education & Information — ensuring families, carers, and health professionals understand what MND is and how to best care for those affected.

🗣 Advocacy — giving a voice to people with MND, campaigning for better healthcare, funding, and systemic change.

🔬 Research — funding vital studies to help discover better treatments — and, one day, a cure.

MND NZ is the only organisation in the country solely dedicated to improving lives, advocating for change, and funding hope for those affected by this devastating disease.

✨ With limited government funding, they rely on all of us — our generosity, our compassion, and our willingness to act — to keep their mission alive.

💙 Here’s how you can help today:
✅ Purchase a full-priced pair of Josef Seibel shoes — we’ll donate $15 per pair.
✅ Donate more, if you wish, via the MND NZ donation page.
✅ Share this cause with friends, family, and colleagues.
✅ Walk with us in spirit by learning more about MND and raising awareness.

Every donation, every conversation, every step brings us closer to a world where MND no longer takes lives too soon.

Together, we can make time count. Will you join us?
