When 50 donors give to the BC Brain Wellness Program by 5pm on April 5, a gift of $10,000 from an anonymous donor will be unlocked. 

The BCBWP is entirely donor funded and we hope to raise $500,000 annually to support the ongoing development and delivery of our classes and educational events. We have heard from so many of you who have benefited from the program. We know it is working. Now we need to ensure that we can continue to provide this service and to reach many more people.
