WIIM Charity Challenge Update: $2600 Pledged!

I know the beginning of the season seems like a lifetime ago, but way back then some of our community members made a pledge to support the Concussion Legacy Foundation this season.

Since it’s been a while, here is a reminder of what this organization does:

The Concussion Legacy Foundation was founded on June 14, 2007, by Chris Nowinski, Ph.D., and Dr. Robert Cantu. After seeking help from Dr. Cantu for his own post-concussion symptoms, Chris’ view about concussions was completely changed. He discovered he had never been taught the signs and symptoms of a concussion, so he didn’t report them or even know he had them while playing football at Harvard.
