Bootlegger & Canadian Royal Purple BC Join Together to Raise Funds

by

Canadian Royal PurpleWe’re extremely thankful to the staff and customers of Bootlegger, who in partnership with the Canadian Royal Purple BC, raised over $2,600 to support Brainstreams. On behalf of those we serve, thank you!

Every year, the Canadian Royal Purple raises funds during the month of March for Brain Love.  This annual campaign is launched in conjunction with International Brain Awareness Month and Brain Health Month in Canada. The provincial lodges of Royal Purple work hard to raise funds and awareness about the importance of brain health and brain injury prevention.

In Canada, June is Brain Injury Awareness month, and the lodges will assist our Brain Injury Associations to distribute information and awareness about brain injury. 

For Purple Thursday, the third Thursday in OCTOBER, Royal Purple lodges gather supplies for Care Bags which they give to shelters in their communities along with information about the brain injuries caused by interpersonal violence, calling for the violence to stop.
