Support Brain Injury Survivors in South Australia – Donate Today
Brain injury can strike suddenly and without warning, through an accident, injury, or disease. Its effects are as unique as the individual affected. In Australia, brain injury is the leading cause of disability in people under 45, and two out of three individuals acquire their brain injury before the age of 25. In South Australia, over 2,500 people are affected by brain injury every year. It could happen to you or someone you know, and often, the injury is invisible to others.
The Impact of Brain Injury
We often don’t realize how vital our brain’s health is to our daily lives until it is compromised. A brain injury can affect every aspect of a person’s functioning, including:
- Physical capacity and mobility
- Memory, cognitive skills, and learning
- Speech and communication
- Emotional well-being and control
- Vision and sight
- Strength and stamina
For many, brain injury leads to the loss of employment, broken relationships, and a shift from independence to dependence—often at a very young age. The effects are lifelong and can be devastating.
How You Can Help
The BISA Foundation was established to support Brain Injury SA in raising crucial funds to provide services and support to people in the brain injury community. These services are especially important for individuals who lack other funding options and for essential programs that remain unfunded by government resources.
Your generous donations help us expand our free services and support programs for families, carers, and individuals affected by Acquired Brain Injury (ABI). These services are essential in helping individuals regain independence and lead fulfilling lives.
Why Your Support Matters
Brain injuries are life-changing. With your support, we can offer vital services like:
- Counselling and peer support for individuals and families
- Rehabilitation programs to assist with recovery and skill-building
- Educational workshops for caregivers and families
- Advocacy for better support systems and resources for people with ABI
Every donation makes a difference in the lives of those affected by brain injury. Help us provide hope, support, and a path to recovery for thousands of Australians living with brain injury.
