Giving & Volunteering
Giving to Side by Side is a rewarding experience because you can be involved in making the program available to those who cannot afford to attend on their own. You can make a donation in honor of a loved one or give on a monthly basis to support the life skills training of an individual member. Either way, you are contributing to the success of a friend, a family or a community who has been touched by the trauma of brain injury.
Another way to give is through your efforts to volunteer. Opportunities abound at Side by Side! Whether you want a one time opportunity or have a few hours to give on a weekly or monthly basis, we can design the perfect volunteer job for you. Make a difference in the lives of others! Find the perfect fit!
We are not publishing a list of supporters except those in our newsletters.

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.
You can make a difference in the lives of others!
Volunteer opportunities abound – find the perfect fit for you!

Just had to send you a note for sending Colleen our way. We have never had anybody as conscientious and dedicated to her work as Colleen. She is always on time and goes out of her way to accommodate others in the Office. Thanks for sending Colleen and the wonderful work done at Side By Side.

The Clubhouse is a treasured and unusual resource. It provides experiences that I, as a professional, cannot. Working as part of a community, a person learns to value others, to value him or herself. The Clubhouse provides a safe and respectful space in which patients become people again.
Dr. M. Rusin, psychologist serving brain injured clients -
As regards staff and volunteers the Clubhouse offers a terrific opportunity for meaningful service to our fellow man. Families and society are well served when a member who was providing meaningful contributions to his family before his accident or set-back is re-empowered and regains his self worth.
Irvine, Clubhouse volunteer -
The Clubhouse produces winners on all sides. Those who provide service and those who receive service benefit from the Clubhouse. It provides a positive environment where every member is treated as an individual and where the member is invested in the therapy offered to get that member sufficiently functional for him to re-enter society as a functioning individual.
Irvine, Clubhouse volunteer -
Side By Side means so much to me and my family. As the wife of a member, I am so thankful for the role Side By Side plays in my husband’s continued growing and adapting to life with a brain injury. As a volunteer, my family is rewarded ten fold every time we do something for the clubhouse in smiles alone!
Laurie, wife of Clubhouse member -
Side by Side Brain Injury Clubhouse is a true gem within the field of rehabilitation and community support for adults with traumatic or acquired brain injury. Side by Side helps members regain their sense of self and move forward to become productive and contributing members of society, with the support, love and care of the other members, staff and volunteers, family members, and even the community.
Dr. D. Berens, rehabilitation consultant -
The Clubhouse has been a wonderful place for her to re-learn socialization skills that were lost due to her traumatic brain injury. The Clubhouse has been a lifesaver for my daughter.
Mother of a Clubhouse member -
My husband began attending Side by Side 1½ years ago, and after a long nine year journey with brain injury, Side by Side was a breath of fresh air. When he is helped, it benefits our whole family.
