Make a High-Impact Donation
Branch Out fundraises to support a wide variety of research into neurological disorders. A high impact donation would allow us to provide a significant amount of funding to one research project.
Bronze ($500)
Have your company’s name and logo listed on our website as a supporter of Branch Out.
Silver ($1,000)
Choose a particular neurological disorder that is important to you, and we will try our best to allocate your donation to a research project that aligns with it (depending on the applications received this year). Plus, you’ll receive the bronze tier reward!
Gold ($2,000)
We will create a Branch Out Impact Grant in your company’s name. The Impact Grant helps get research outside of the lab, and into the community where it can make a real impact. These grants are awarded year-round and can have a value of up to $2,000.
In addition to the bronze and silver tier rewards, your company’s logo will be on the dedicated research page for your Impact Grant.
