The Mito Foundation is the only organisation dedicated to supporting people affected by mitochondrial disease (mito) in Australia. We fund essential research into the prevention, diagnosis, treatment and cures of mitochondrial disorders, and increase awareness and education about this devastating disease. 

Mito is a debilitating genetic disorder that robs the body’s cells of energy, causing multiple organ dysfunction or failure and potentially death. One Australian baby born each week will develop a severe or life-threatening form of mito. That’s over 50 Australian children each year. Mito is terminal; there are no cures and few effective treatments. We are determined to change this.

The Mito Foundation owns and operates The Bloody Long Walk national series, a 35km walking challenge along beautiful scenic routes across Australia.  All moneys raised by participants help the Mito Foundation fund research and support for families affected by mito. The Bloody Long Walk offers an opportunity for individuals and businesses to make a meaningful difference to those impacted by the disease while raising awareness in local communities.
