Direct Benefits To Milka Clarke Stroke & Accident Brain Trauma Foundation
Many people are under the impression that most charities are top heavy, with ‘administrative costs’ and executive salaries so high that very little donated money ever makes it to those it was intended for. This is NOT the case with the Milka Clarke Stroke & Accident Brain Trauma Foundation. In fact, the opposite is true, because frugality and fiscal responsibility by our administration ensures that every dollar donated achieves maximum benefit to survivors of brain injury, and their families.
When you support the Milka Clarke Stroke & Accident Brain Trauma Foundation, you open the door to hope for survivors of brain injury, their families, friends and communities. Your financial contribution allows us to provide education, prevention and support to the many rural and remote communities throughout the parish of Westmoreland and beyond, and also to provide education for the professionals who provide care to them.
The medical system in Westmoreland is inadequate to take care of the intitial recovery from a brain injury, there is often little to no local rehabilitation, support or services for people geographically isolated and restricted, upon returning home. The Milka Clarke Stroke & Accident Brain Trauma Foundation was formed to meet their many needs. Your contribution enables us to provide survivors with services, referrals and resources to assist them where they live, and education, support and direction to the people that they live with.
Currently, there is a huge lack of culturally appropriate and targeted brain injury preventative materials and programs for many remote communities all over the island of Jamaica, which is a serious barrier to education and services for many under served and marginalized persons in rural Jamaica. In order to address these concerns, we have developed a series of initiatives that involve culturally sensitive multidisciplinary approaches to meet their needs. Increased funding would assist our efforts tremendously.
Direct Benefits To The Survivor’s Community
The best way to help change a survivor’s life for the better, is by changing the survivor’s community. When you support the Milka Clarke Stroke & Accident Brain Trauma Foundation, your partnership gives us the ability to further develop and coordinate local resources by engaging the cooperation of community minded individuals and organizations, and increase our education and prevention efforts, because prevention is the only known cure for brain injury.
By partnering with communities to help them understand what has happened to survivors, and how best to help them, we dispel fear and diminish misunderstanding. This is vital to building healthier, happier communities, and to developing strong and sustainable solutions that last long into the future. Your gift enables us to create a long-lasting difference in people’s lives by helping them to stay safe, and if injured, receive acceptance and assistance from their home town folks and family members.
Direct Benefits To The Economy
Increasing brain injury awareness is an excellent health care investment that yields absolutely huge dividends. It can save a huge amount of taxpayers dollars per year by significantly lowering social service costs, and reducing personal tragedy. For instance; experts agree that 60-80% of inmates are victims of untreated brain injury, and most were injured long before ever committing a crime. If we were able to reduce current court cases and prison populations just by 20% through education and treatment, a huge chunk of the national debt would be paid off.
Brain injury often leads survivors to self-medication of pain and issues by using illegal substances, prescription drugs and/or alcohol, and that almost always results in criminal charges. This sets in motion a vicious cycle of indictment and incarceration, followed by unsuccessful probation, parole and general rehabilitative efforts. Funding brain injury prevention and services will save tens of millions if not billions of dollars per year.
