iPain: Pain It Forward

All funds raised go to Power of Pain Foundation, Inc. (dba: International Pain Foundation), an International nonprofit. Registered 501-C-3 in the United States. iPain’s mission is to educate and support chronic pain patients, specifically those with neuropathy pain conditions. The iPain is run by an all volunteer board of directors, delegate program, and event volunteers.

From 2006-2015 the iPain has distributed materials to educate and bring awareness to people from all walks of life about chronic pain diseases.  We are asking for your help with printing and shipping costs so we can continue fulfilling our mission to educate and bring awareness to treatment options, symptoms and access to care. 

We are now raising funds for educational and awareness materials to distribute during 2016-17. Materials will be made available free to pain patients, support groups and pain provider offices around the world. 

We will order materials as funds become availalble. They are distributed through mail and in person events starting in Jan. 2016-Dec. 2017. 

Our projected breakdown in costs are: to serve 10,000 people in pain
Education Bookmarks        $5,000 
Education Brochures $560
Shipping   $7,000
Window Stickers        $3,500
Balloons    $625
Bracelets  $1,500
Hand Sanitizers $3,750
Pens $1,250
Jar Grips  $2,500
Post It Notes      $2,500
Business Cards $200
Bags $1,650

Since our inception in 2006, these types of materials were paid for by Chriss Ingle & Jim Ingle. Chriss passed away this past May 2015 and we will no longer be receiving these funds as they are obviously not available to us. Jim passed away on Feb. 4, 2016. Therefore, we must limit this portion of our programs until funds are raised. This is a value resource for pain patients and their families in the access to proper and timely care.

Please help us reach our funding goals so we may continue this program.  We are grateful for any donation you can make to help this project, and know the recipients of these items will be incredibly grateful for the assistance that they offer and awareness it raises. We have to lower the stigma in society surrounding chronic pain and need your help to make this work!
