March is Brain Injury Awareness Month and once again Opportunity Project is holding its annual BlueJean DayBlueJean Day focuses on brain injury community awareness and education, while raising funds for Opportunity Project’s programs.

 BlueJean Day 2012 is focused on concussion awareness and prevention!

  •  Over 1.7 million people in the U.S. sustain a TBI each year
  • Every 21 Seconds, someone in the U.S. sustains a brain injury
  • About 75% of TBI’s that occur each year are concussions or other mild forms of TBI

 Please join us as a SPONSOR in 2012 and help us educate the community about concussion!

BlueJean Day is simple and fun.  Companies designate a day when employees can wear jeans to work.  This is a great team building opportunity for your organization.  Employees who donate $5 will receive a brain injury awareness bracelet and raffle tickets to win great prizes.  If your dress code does not permit jeans, designate a theme day where everyone can wear a specific color or type of clothing (i.e. Hawaiian shirts).

The funds raised from BlueJean Day support the Opportunity Project Clubhouse.  Our mission is to empower persons with brain injuries to achieve self esteem, self determination, personal growth, independence and the attainment of their full potential
