Together, let’s give back to caregivers on Giving Tuesday

Giving Tuesday is November 30, 2021

On this global day of giving, join us in celebrating the unsung heroes who give every day… FAMILY CAREGIVERS

Giving Tuesday inspires millions of people across the globe to give and make positive change in our communities. This year, Schurig Center would like to honor the caregivers who keep our families and communities strong, each and every day.

When someone experiences a brain injury, it doesn’t just happen to them. It affects their entire family. At Schurig Center, we see first-hand the daily commitment, time, and support family caregivers provide for their loved one living with a brain injury. This care is tirelessly given while they also balance daily work, financial, and family responsibilities. Please join us in thanking and giving back to these heroes by making a donation or fundraising for Schurig Center on Giving Tuesday.

Help us raise $10,000 in 24 hours on November 30 for
Schurig Center’s supportive services for family caregivers.

Your generosity will help provide family members and caregivers with support groups, respite, consultation and guidance, resource referral assistance, brain injury education, and a supportive partner who understands the unique challenges of life after brain injury.

END
Monday, August 24 @ 12:00 PM PST

BID ONLINE AT
BiddingForGood.com/SchurigCenter

Your bid provides essential connection and care services for your fellow community members living with a brain injury

The cancellation of Schurig Center’s Annual BAM Gala is your gain! Many of the items that would have been available for bidding at the gala will be offered online instead for your bidding fun. We hope you enjoy bidding on them!

And, the best part is… With your auction purchase or Fund-A-Need donation, you provide the only place in our area picking up where the healthcare system leaves off to help people thrive after a brain injury.

Although we do not know what the coming days may hold, we do know that your generosity is the reason we are able to still provide services. Our programs are being offered in a new way, remotely, but the cost to provide them has not changed. And, with 70% of clients living on low income, we rely on community support to be able to offer care to all who need us.

If you are in a position to help, please bid as generously as you can and bid it to win it!

Thank You!

Matching Gift Challenge on #GivingTuesdayNow, May 5

We hope you’ll join us in ensuring essential connection and care continues to be available for our neighbors living with brain injury, during and after this crisis.

#GivingTuesdayNow is a global day of giving and unity that will take place on May 5, 2020 as an emergency response to the unprecedented need caused by COVID-19. There are many ways to support healing at Schurig Center on #GivingTuesdayNow…

DONATE – We hope to raise $10,000 to support Schurig Center’s rehabilitative and supportive services that are being offered “virtually” for our neighbors living with brain injury during the COVID-19 crisis. To help us reach our goal, the first $5,000 will be matched by a very generous donor.

Host a Facebook fundraiser

If you know someone living with brain injury, connect with them for a virtual chat or see if they could use a helping hand right now.

If you know someone who is caregiving for a loved one with brain injury, check in with them to see if you can offer help to them in any way, like offering to pick up groceries for them or preparing a meal to drop off, or leave them a comforting gift on their doorstep.

Though we do not know what the coming days and weeks may hold, we do know your generosity powers what we do and has kept us going for 35 years.

This #GivingTuesdayNow, we also want to give back to YOU our incredible community of friends to say THANK YOU for being the heart of Schurig Center’s mission.

Your kindness, collaboration, and generosity has provided healing and connection for countless lives over Schurig Center’s 35 years of service to the community.

YOU are the heartbeat of our mission.
We are grateful!
