Our Primary Need
~Becoming a Nonprofit Corporation~

We need funding to further public awareness of brain injury issues and provide quality programs and outlets for the brain injury survivors, their families and caregivers who make up our membership. At present, our growth and impact are limited by our inability to attract sponsors and donors.

Therefore, our most immediate need is to become a not-for-profit corporation. Because we do not have nonprofit status, fund raising events and solicitation of donations is virtually impossible. Not only do donors expect their gifts to be tax deductable, they tend to equate an organization's legitimacy with its corporate status and are often suspicious of unincorporated charities, relegating them to the genre of social clubs.

So, you see, we are in a catch 22 of sorts. We need funds and/or donated professional services to obtain our nonprofit corporate status, however donors are not forthcoming because we lack that status!

We have researched the details of what is entailed and created a checklist of sequential steps required to bring us to our goal. Please consider if you would like to be part of something special for a truly special category of people. We promise you won't be disappointed with the results!
