We’re proud to announce that thanks to the efforts of the Ontario Brain Injury Association (OBIA) and the Brain Injury Society of Toronto (BIST), the 11th annual Mix & Mingle raised $150,000 to support Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) survivors.
About 700 professionals who work with ABI survivors, along with family and friends, attended this year’s event, which was held at the Steam Whistle Brewery on June 10.
“Mix and Mingle does one of two things; it raises awareness of brain injuries in Ontario and it enables each organization to continue to support individuals and their families who are living with brain injuries,” said Ruth Wilcock, Executive Director of OBIA.
Neinstein’s Managing Partner Greg Neinstein has been chair of the event for the last six years. “I’m proud to be involved in such a successful event and I hope to continue giving back to such a noteworthy cause,” says Neinstein.
Brain injury is very prevalent to occur in our society. Brain injuries are 15 times more likely to occur than a spinal cord injury, 20 times more likely to occur than breast cancer and 400 times more likely than HIV/Aids.
