About the Campaign
More than 4,000 Minnesotans are hospitalized with a traumatic brain injury each year. Major causes of brain injury include motor vehicle collisions, falls, assaults and shaken baby syndrome, as well as acquired brain injuries due to, strokes, near-drowning, heart failure, and aneurysms. Brain injuries have lasting, life-changing consequences and often require ongoing rehabilitation.
The Minnesota Brain Injury Alliance is here to help people navigate life after brain injury. For those who live and work with disabilities resulting from brain injury, the Alliance acts as a critical resource center. Whether assisting with finding a new place to live, connecting them with medical services, or providing training to the professionals who support them, the Alliance provides an array of support services.
Bring your family, friends, loved ones and co-workers to the 2019 Walk for Thought and celebrate our inspiring annual family reunion with Minnesota’s dynamic brain injury community! Thousands of individuals have experienced brain injury but they’ve also experienced many successes. When you join the Walk, you are joining them along with their families, friends and the professionals who work with them in honoring the personal journeys of so many amazing Minnesotans as well as the loved ones we’ve lost along the way.
Originally started by a handful of motivated volunteers, the Walk for Thought has grown tremendously over the last few years. Since our first Walk for Thought in 2002, more than 23,500 Walkers have registered for the Walk for Thought and over $1,500,000 in donations and sponsorships have been raised.
Why Walk for Thought?
Brain injury can happen to anyone, anywhere anytime. The Minnesota Brain Injury Alliance is here to provide help, hope and a voice to the 100,000 Minnesotans living with a disability due to brain injury and their loved ones. Funds raised at the Walk for Thought help ensure that Minnesotan's affected by brain injury can connect to critical support services.
