For families of children with a brachial plexus birth injury (BPBI), the Brachial Plexus Clinic at The Hospital for Sick Children serves an integral role in their lives. This clinic and the members of the team, come alongside families to help them understand the injury and provide surgical and therapy options to help children obtain the maximum use of their affected arm.

Most kids with BPBI never meet other kids with the same injury. In recent years, the clinic has made efforts to bring BPBI families and kids together, to learn, support each other and of course have fun. The clinic has facilitated workshops for the kids for the children and a Family Day. These events are life changing for families. They leave feeling inspired and kids are more confident in themselves and their abilities. 

We are raising funds to help the clinic makes these events possible. As an alumni family of the clinic, we have seen the positive effects of these events and we want to help make more of them possible.

But we can’t do it on our own! Just like it takes a team to help kids with BPBI, we need a team to alongside us to help us reach our fundraising goal.

Whether you are a friend, family member or alumni of the clinic, we want YOU to join us in being #confidencebuilders!
