Running for Brain Injury Services
Donation protected
I am a full time carer for my husband Dave who suffered a traumatic brain injury 5 years ago as a result of a pushbike accident. Dave spent a total of 18months in hospital and rehab combined before I finally got to bring him home. During his transition back into the "real world" our family has had tremendous support from Mid North Coast Brain Injury Services.
I would like to give something back. I have signed up to take part in a 11k outback fun run which is held in conjunction with the Outback Marathon on July 30th 2016 at Uluru. I would like to use this opportunity to raise awareness for Brain Injury Services and to also gain sponsorship so I can make a donation to our local M.N.C.B.I.R.S.
I run regularly for my own wellbeing but I have never run more than 8k so this is a challenge for me, but nothing compared to the challenges brain injury survivors face while recovering and during rehab.
It would be awesome if anyone could make an affordable donation to help reach my goal and to support our local services. If all my Facebook friends managed to donate $1 that is already over $800. I don't expect that I am just using it as an example of how easy it could be. If it's not possible to make a donation then maybe you could share my page to help spread the word.
Thank you to anyone who might be able to help.
