We Are Sponsoring the Upcoming Walk for Thought!
Affiliated Dentists is proud to be an active part of the community, and we are thrilled to be sponsoring the upcoming Brain Injury Alliance of Wisconsin (BIAW) “Walk for Thought.” This is the first year that the walk will be held in Madison, WI.
What is the Walk for Thought?
The Brain Injury Alliance of Wisconsin is a state-wide non-profit organization dedicated to improving the lives of individuals affected by brain injury. BIAW provides information and resources to patients and families, advocacy, and support services. The annual Walk for Thought is one of BIAW’s biggest fund raisers each year.
When and Where is the Walk for Thought?
The Walk for Thought will take place on Saturday, September 10th at the Capital Square. The walk will begin at 11:00 am.
Affiliated Dentists Will Also Be Participating in the Walk
In addition to sponsoring the Walk for Thought, our own Dr. Brian Porter is organizing and leading a team of walkers at the event! If you are interested in joining our team, please contact Dr. Porter no later than Wednesday, September 7th by stopping into our West location or by giving our office a call. We’d love for you to join so Affiliated Dentists can have a great presence at the walk!
How You Can Help
As a nonprofit organization, BIAW relies on individuals who donate. Financial contributions help them supply educational information, provide prevention initiatives, and advocate for all of those in need in Wisconsin. You can also check with your employer, as many companies offer programs in which they double or even sometimes triple charitable contributions made by employees. Another way is to select BIAW as the charity you want to donate some of your purchases to on Amazon.com. When shopping on Amazon, simply start at http://smile.amazon.com/ and choose Brain Injury Association of Wisconsin as your charity of choice. Each time you shop, use AmazonSmile and Amazon will donate 0.5% of the price of your eligible AmazonSmile purchases!
Participation in the Walk for Thought is crucial, as it helps BIAW continue their commitment to provide crucial programs and services to patients who have experienced a brain injury, their families, and professionals. Brain injury can happen to anyone, anywhere, at any time. BIAW is here to give HOPE through Help, Opportunity, Prevention, and Education. Please visit http://biaw.org/ for more information.
Hope to see you there!
