Help us raise money

For participating in Tamarack Ottawa Virtual Race Weekend 2020

Our story…

With our team having been personally impacted by an acquired brain injury (ABI), we are thrilled to support the Brain Injury Association in the Scotiabank Charity Challenge, and hope you will support us! This March will mark six years since Alex was diagnosed with Post Concussion Syndrome (PCS), something that has impacted all areas of her life. Please visit Alex’s page to learn about her story. Working hard towards our first 5k and half-marathon, all donations in support of our team will go towards the Brain Injury Association. We’re aiming to raise awareness through this race as life with an ABI can be incredibly challenging. Much more research is needed in this field and we want to contribute as much as possible to a cause we’re incredibly passionate about.

Description

Living with an acquired brain injury (ABI) can impact every aspect of a person’s life: physical, cognitive, emotional, social and behavioural.  ABI is more prevalent than Multiple Sclerosis, Spinal Cord Injury, HIV/AIDS and Breast Cancer combined, yet does not receive the attention it should. Help us prove that brain injury is not invisible!

Start fundraising today to support education, awareness and advocacy, ensuring the millions of Canadians living with the effects of acquired brain injury are supported, valued and engaged in their communities.

To show our appreciation for raising funds, runners raising $100 or more will receive a 2020 Brain Injury Canada Ottawa Race Weekend performance t-shirt.
