ANNUAL REPORT We are happy to report the progress of this vital organization during its 29th year of operation! The popular joke is to hold steady at 29 years old and not age. Well, here at BINBA, we are happy to be aging. BINBA celebrates its 30th birthday in 2015 and we are thrilled! As a non-profit organization whose mission enhances the life of hundreds of community members and provides invaluable education to hundreds more, we are honored to have you on our team. An organization is the sum of its people –the clients, staff, board members, volunteers, donors – and true success is the result of a dedicated, passionate, brave, and caring Kimberly Strub group working together towards a shared vision. Henry Ford summed it Patricia Gill President Executive Director up perfectly in his quote, “Coming together is the beginning. Keeping together is progress. Working together is success.” Karen Schurig, BINBA’s Founder, would be humbled to see the organization’s progress and would be grateful for your involve- ment and support. This past year resulted in expansion in several key areas; number of programs offered, community members served, and financial support received. These are summarized on page two for your reference. We would like to highlight the fact that over 1700 people were reached through our 13 unique and specialized services. New to BINBA this past year was the completion of the Brain Injury Information Handbook (available on our website and in print), a professional Speaker’s Series, and a stroke survivor support group. Lastly, we received financial donations from more donors than ever before and hosted our most successful Gala to date. It has truly been a great year! What’s on the horizon for our 30th year? We have several goals this year. Our goals include increasing our community partner- ships, expanding our concussion education program into local schools, adding a speech therapy class for stroke survivors, posting an extensive resource list on our website, and hosting an outstanding Gala in honor of 30 years! In this report, you will see that BINBA serves people of varying ages and injuries. These clients are ‘us’, living their lives when an injury happened suddenly, changing their abilities and their futures. As you read about Cole, a survivor of numerous concussions before the age of 18, remember that you made a difference in his life. Becausecause of of you you and and BINBAs BINBA’s existence existence,, Cole Cole and and hundreds hundreds more last year alone, have a place to turn to when an injury challenges theirheir lives. “Without BINBA, I probably would not be here today. I attribute BINBA to beingeing one of the reasons that I'm still alive today.” Cole KernKern With Gratitude,titude, KimberlyKimberly Strub, President,President, Board of DirectorsDirectors Patricia Gill, Executive Directorr On April 12, 2014, 250 friends of BINBA gathered to raise over $100,000 for the Karen Schurig Scholarship Fund.
