On August 23rd, 2024, the Southern Alberta Brain Injury Society, also known as SABIS, held its third annual Camp SABIS summer barbecue! This event was completely free for its clients and featured plenty of free food, games, and fun for the whole family.
The Southern Alberta Brain Injury Society provides lifelong emotional and practical support to survivors of acquired brain injury, their families, and personal support networks. It also promotes awareness of acquired brain injury and its prevention.
It is estimated that nearly 5000 Albertans experience a significant brain injury every year – with this being a likely under-reported figure. SABIS exists to support those impacted by TBI’s (Traumatic Brain Injuries), by connecting them to the support and services they need to thrive and live a fulfilling life. Without the support that SABIS provides, individuals and their caregivers may be unable to acquire the support they need, risking losing their gains toward recovery. SABIS aims to provide hope and guidance during a time of insurmountable difficulty for these victims.
As the sponsor of the event, Pipella Law was delighted to be given the opportunity to support SABIS, which began as a grassroots; non-profit organization over 30 years ago. This organization is dedicated to supporting brain injury survivors and providing access to necessary services and resources to live as independently as possible in the community.
Currently serving over 200 members per year, SABIS is funded partially by the Government of Alberta but relies heavily on fundraising and volunteers to keep operations running.
If you are considering supporting this integral support organization, consider donating to SABIS, or volunteering there.
