Open House Pictures and Letter Posted!

July 19, 2015/in General Blog Posts/by Chris Leeuw

ChrisSpeech2 Nora, Donna, Allison, and I want to extend a HUGE and heartfelt thanks to everyone who attended our open house last Wednesday. 

What was originally planned to be a small gathering to thank our contributors from last summer's crowdfunding campaign, morphed into a larger event open to anyone interested in our cause and what we are building for Indianapolis.  More than 100 of you came to show your support.  We were thrilled with the turnout and the passion each of you showed with your presence and by the personal conversations we had with many of you. Crowd4

I also want to thank the volunteers that helped organize, set-up, and serve as "staff" for the night.  Justin Davis, Rob Shaw, Katie and Markus Wilds, Jon and Sarah McAfee, Tony Allanson, Callie Burk, and Jonelle Ball were outstanding hosts for the evening.  I've known them all since childhood, and it was pretty special to have them by my side on such an awesome night.

And, how 'bout that eatin'!?  We had some fantastic food generously provided by some of our favorite restaurants.  Pure Eatery (my favorite place in Fountain Square) donated wraps and salads for all.  Iaria's Italian Restaurant supplied the delicious meatballs, and the spread from Indy's own Sushi Boss and Rocket 88 Doughnuts were gobbled up fast.  I'd like to extend a big thanks to those restaurants that sponsored us!

We have come a long way since our initial fundraising push began last summer.  We've opened our doors, purchased specialized equipment, changed a state law, and have started seeing our first clients.   You have all played a significant role in our early success.  As Allison and I explained on Wednesday, we hope you can help us spread the word past our existing network.   We handed out 10 copies of a pre-written Outreach Letter to each of you that explains our mission and explains our goals.   Now, we humbly ask for your help.   We hope you can find 10 people in your network to send the letter.  We left the title and the signature fields empty for you to fill in the fields or add a personal mesage.  

If you didn't take home the hard copies, you can download the letter and print it out here.  So, no excuses!

If each of you reach out to just 10 family members, friends, co-workers, or social groups, there is a solid chance we will find others interested in NeuroHope and eager to help us reach our goals.  We have an aggressive plan of $50,000 to raise by next spring which will ensure we stay viable until we can apply for money from the new state law.

Therapy Director Elliot and Chris were in studio @indynowtv to tell the NeuroHope story and the hundreds of families we have helped on their road to recovery from #Spinalcordinjury #braininjury and #Stroke.  Neurologic injuries are life changing.  The need for affordable rehab after hospital discharge, and specialized fitness programs to improve long-term health is REAL.  Thanks to @uindy_kspt, @orthoindy Foundation , @reevefoundation and all those who have helped us grow.
Recovery is a process.  It’s why we’re here!.

The healthcare system is complex, especially for people recovering from neurological conditions like spinal cord injury, brain injury, and stroke.  The cost of care is high, and the time spent in insurance-covered rehabilitation is short.  Our mission revolves around providing services for the people that fall through the cracks of healthcare.  It’s why we’re here.  We smashed our $5,000 #GivingTuesday goal, and raised $7,000 yesterday to support our programs for people recovering from paralysis
Thank you all!

BIG Congratulations to Wellness Director Bart Richwalski - now certified through the NSCA as a Special Population Specialist (CSPS). This is a rigorous exam established for kinesiologists to address the unique fitness needs of those with chronic neuromuscular conditions.

We can’t express how lucky we are to have Bart leading our Wellness Team.  Since joining NeuroHope 5 years ago, he has built a parallel program to our clinical therapy side, and made NeuroHope’s overall model - a hybrid of skilled therapy and personalized fitness what it is today.

Congratulations Bart!.

Spinal cord injury, brain injury, stroke, and neurologic conditions can take months or years of recovery, but patients are often discharged from insurance-covered care in a matter of weeks. 

Since 2015 we have helped hundreds of families receive continued rehabilitative care during the most trying times in their lives.  It’s the reason why NeuroHope was created.

These injuries are life-changing.  We are honored and thankful that the @orthoindy Foundation is helping us build a care center in #Indy to support patients throughout their entire recovery process!

Yesterday, we celebrated the life of Andrew Habel.  Who passed one year ago due to a #TBI.  His wife Erin, his friends, family, and colleagues at @compass_construction launched “Habelfest”, an annual BBQ competition in his honor.  It was a day of OUTSTANDING food, a community of support, and more than $90,000 raised in his honor!

NeuroHope is beyond humbled to be the charity chosen by the Habel’s to receive the proceeds in his honor.  Andrew’s funds will be used for gym renovations at NeuroHope, and be placed in a patient care fund to directly serve patients in need, receive post-hospital therapy after neurologic injury.

We can’t thank the Habel’s, Compass, @barnraisers and his entire community of supporters enough for letting us honor and celebrate him with you!
