Mission Statement
We are committed to assist kids like Jonathan who have suffered from the debilitation effects of viral encephalitis/brain injuries. Our goal is to increase awareness of rehabilitation techniques that allow these kids to be the best they can be.
Description
At the age of two Jonathan suffered a neurological devastation, caused by viral encephalitis and he was discharged from standard physical therapy programs. This is because he showed no progress. Therefore, other therapy programs were sought out for him. Jonathan has been improving steadily over the past three years, due to his ABR (Advanced Biomechanical Rehabilitation) and cognitive therapy. These programs are costly to maintain yet beneficial in his progress. We raise money to help make a difference in the lives of children like him.
