Volunteering, Donations, and Fundraising
Volunteers needed
We could not reach as many people as we do without
the wonderful volunteers that we have. During 2003 we had many
successful fund raisers and events and our great volunteers made
that possible. I would like to extend an invitation to everyone who
would like to volunteer for the year 2004. We have many areas where
you can provide assistance to the survivors of brain injury and
their families. If you feel that you can offer the time to the Brain
Injury Association of West Virginia, we would love to hear from you.
I can be reached at 1-800-356-6443 or by email at
BIAWV@AOL.COM (ask for Peggy
Brown or Belinda Silas). The following areas are where we currently
need assistance.
