Traumatic Brain Injury
In the United States, 5.3 million people are living with a TBI (traumatic brain injury) disability and over 5 million more Americans have acquired a brain injury through stroke or other causes.

In Louisiana, 90 out of every 100,000 residents have some form of a brain injury.

1,000 out of every 100,000 metro Orleans area residents acquire brain injuries.

Funds raised from the event will go to local brain injury education and recovery programs.
