The Brachial Plexus Association of Australia aims to be a national organisation providing support, education, information and community to all Australians who are suffering from Brachial Plexus Injuries (Erb's Palsy).
We are attempting to raise funds to cover the costs of:
-
setting up a registered company
-
registering as a not for profit organisation
-
printing posters for hospitals and specialist/therapy offices
-
t-shirt printing
-
calendar printing
-
other and hoc administration costs
-
flights an accommodation to travel and give initial informative presentations
We then plan to raise further funds by selling promotional materials or through investors, to assist those in need and to fund further national travel for presentations and events.
In the long term, we want to establish a Brachial Plexus Awareness Week, fund state get togethers and national think tanks, offer educational sessions to emergency room staff and birthing staff to raise awareness and to reduce risks of occurence and fund promotional and educational material for all medical and therapists across the country.
Receiving this funding will help thousands of people across Australia. It will unite us and raise awareness to a population that has barely any knowledge of this condition. We hope to minimise birth related injuries, and educate emergency staff about the condition. Both will allow early diagnosis, early referrals and will ensure people have the best chance of successful rehabilitation.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read this. Please share with your colleagues, patients and friends.
