The ThinkFirst Foundation would like to take this opportunity to express our sincerest gratitude to those who so generously support our programs. Your sponsorship is vitally important to our mission of preventing brain, spinal cord and other disabling injuries. We recognize that without your generous contributions, we would not be able to reach the millions of children, teens, and families who have received the message "Use Your Mind to Protect Your Body". We credit you with our many past successes and look forward to your participation in our future growth and progress. We offer our continued appreciation to the community leaders, corporate partners, sponsoring physicians, individual contributors, and international affiliates who dedicate themselves to the cause of preventing deadly and traumatic injuries from afflicting our youth. On behalf of the children who benefit from our united efforts to save lives - thank you.
