Dance

Freedom House is preparing a fund raising dance in mid summer at Balboa Park, providing we can arrange for the space. As soon as we have a date and a for sure place will post it. Something to add to your list of fun things to do this summer.

Freedom House Walk for Thought 2010

What a great success our Walk For Thought turned out to be. The best ever. The San Diego weather cooperated, especially after the torrential rains we had the previous week and the always questionable reports we were getting for our weekend. And most of all, I want to specially thank all of the volunteers who spent their free time coming to planning meetings and the work they did at the Walk (and after, cleaning up was fun!?!!!) And thanks to everyone who came out to walk along with family and friends. We need that kind of support.

Also the food stands (great hot dogs and lots of fruit), and information about TBI and books to read. I saw many who took advantage of the tables of information around the area.

We plan many more fundraisers this coming year so will keep you posted and for any who want to help, keep checking our blog and I will give you heads up as we can always use your help planning and working, to make Freedom House a real home for those who need it.

New Videos, New Directions

My name is Beverly Thompson and I am the president of Freedom House. As you know, we are a non-profit organization which plans to open homes for people who suffered a traumatic brain injury.

As president, my board of directors and myself asked Praxis Universal to create a video for us to educate and show the public the need for such homes and to ask for their financial support.

Praxis Universal not only created this video but also went above and beyond our expectations by creating two more videos and setting up a social networking system that has reached out to a public who has responded by comments and questions asking for the help that often is not available them. They have answered as many of these individuals as possible using their own valuable time to help, and to answer questions.

I again want to thank Praxis Universal for the many hours they put into these videos to make it a success, and again, for going above and beyond our agreement because they care.

The third video features our 2010 Walk for Thought, which I hope you will be able to attend!

Here are their videos:

Thank you,

Beverly Thompson

Freedom House President
