Every gift given to ARBI carries something special — it helps someone rebuild their life after a brain injury and strengthens the community of care that surrounds them. This December, that impact grows even deeper.

At ARBI, recovery is not just a program; it is a collective act of compassion. It unfolds through the courage of survivors, the resilience of families, and the generosity of a community that continues to show up. This month, we’re honouring these extraordinary moments — and the people like you who make them possible.

You can be part of these stories. Give today and see your gift doubled.

A Month Dedicated to Survivor Progress + Impact Stories

All year long, ARBI focuses on one thing: helping survivors take meaningful steps toward rebuilding independence, confidence, and connection.

This December, we’re inviting our whole community to witness the heart of ARBI in motion. You’ll follow the journeys of survivors as they make meaningful progress, hear from caregivers who walk beside them, we’ll share some highlights from our “Living With Hope” panel, and step behind the scenes with the team and volunteers who makes it all possible. And woven through it all are the stories shaped by your generosity.

These are not just updates, they are reminders of why ARBI exists. They show the human spirit at its strongest, and the collective heart behind every milestone.

Your Gifts at Work: What Happens Because of You

When someone donates to ARBI, they aren’t just funding programs, they are opening doors.

Your support makes it possible for survivors to:

• regain skills lost after injury

• return to community life

• rebuild relationships

• rediscover joy and purpose

• continue rehabilitation even when funding or benefits fall short

These stories of progress, connection, and resilience will be at the centre of our December campaign.

Every Gift Gives Twice: Double Your Impact All Month

Thanks to the generosity of the Matt Rumpel Family Foundation, every donation this month will be matched dollar-for-dollar up to $20,000.

That means:

💜 Twice the community programs access. Twice the progress.
💜 Twice the social connection for survivors and families. 
💜 Twice the rehabilitation – right when it matters most.

Why This Matters Now

ARBI is working toward raising $60,000 this December to ensure that survivors who lack benefits or funding do not lose access to essential programming.

Recovery can’t wait.
Support can’t pause.
Progress shouldn’t stop because of financial barriers.

Your doubled donation can keep someone’s rehabilitation moving forward, turning a vulnerable moment into an opportunity for progress.

Celebrate With Us All Month Long

As you follow along with our December stories, we hope you feel the same spark that began ARBI nearly 50 years ago — a simple, powerful promise:

“I can help you.”
