“As a nonprofit organization, events like Punchlines With Purpose play a critical role in helping us continue our mission,” said Guynn Edwards, Executive Director of The Crumley House. “Every ticket purchased, sponsorship secured and donation received helps provide the therapies, technology and programs our members rely on as they work toward greater independence.”
Proceeds from the fundraiser will support The Crumley House’s comprehensive brain injury rehabilitation programs, including physical training, cognitive rehabilitation, technology instruction, classroom activities, community re-entry opportunities and other services designed to improve quality of life for survivors of traumatic brain injury.
Sponsorship opportunities are available for businesses, organizations, and individuals wishing to support the event. Organizers also welcome donations of auction items.
