With 1.7 million new brain injuries each year in the U.S., you probably know or will know someone who needs our help. Chances are, their stories may be similar to our stories.
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.
