As a teenager, Angie was injured on Christmas Day in a car accident that claimed the life of her boyfriend. She is known at the Clubhouse for her happy spirit, persistence and ability to get anywhere she wants to go and do anything she wants to do. Angie creates fantastic, sometimes impossible, lunch menus and serves on every party committee.

Marcus’s humor and dance skills are lunchtime entertainment at the Clubhouse. He remembers well a successful career as an electronics specialist in the Navy, but since a car accident in 2001 left him in a coma for more than a month, he has trouble remembering small things, like to take big steps and how to get around the Clubhouse. Marcus’s membership at Side by Side is a benefit both to his parents who get a much needed break from care giving and to members and staff whose faces break into smiles as he walks (or dances) into a room.

Lamar was working an extra job to earn enough money for the down payment on a new family home when he was assaulted. In his spare time he had enjoyed coaching football, basketball and baseball, and tutoring children in mathematics. Lamar says he comes to Side by Side because he wants to better himself and gain a sense of normalcy after the brain injury

Make a Tribute Fund gift to honor someone special

You can honor a loved one and support the work and mission of Side by Side Brain Injury Clubhouse with a gift to the Tribute Fund. The money raised through the Tribute Fund will be used to support persons with brain injury in their transition from medical patients to contributing community members.

It’s easy to make a gift to the Side by Side Brain Injury Clubhouse’s Tribute Fund in memory of a loved one, in tribute of an accomplishment or to recognize a milestone in someone’s life.

The first 20 donors to the Tribute Fund at the $100 or more level will be given a complimentary subscription to online brain exercises, thanks to our friends at
www.Lumosity.com!

What is the Side by Side Tribute Fund?
It is a fund that serves three purposes:
  1. It is a convenient way for you to memorialize, honor, or celebrate people and events you care about.
  2. Each gift “pays it forward” as Clubhouse members realize their own value to the community as they personally acknowledge each honoree and supporter while building administrative skills by processing each gift to the Tribute Fund.
  3. Donations made to the Tribute Fund are dedicated to providing scholarships so that adults disabled by brain injuries in need of support can receive it regardless of their ability to pay program fees.

How does the Tribute Fund work?
You can make a single donation in tribute to your loved one, or you can establish your very own Tribute Fund Account. It’s easy to set up, and Side by Side will keep up with it for you. You could make donations to your Tribute Fund Account on an ongoing basis, then just let us know the occasions you’d like acknowledged.

We’ll let you know when your Tribute Fund Account is running low, and you can choose whether or not to refill it to keep your tribute requests flowing, perhaps to celebrate your wife’s birthday, your husband’s promotion or show you care about your coworker’s loss of a loved one.

Deposit any amount in your Tribute Fund Account.
