Why am I making Concussion TributeTM\u00a0<\/sup>donations?<\/strong><\/h3>\n

I am making Concussion Tribute\u2122 donations to ensure we continue the race to understand\u00a0the risks of, and cure, CTE.<\/p>\n

I grew up playing and loving the sports that we now know create a prevailing risk of permanent, progressive brain damage. This includes contact sports like football, hockey, and rugby. It extends to sports like soccer and baseball with headers, collisions and foul balls.<\/p>\n

Because of how these sports were designed, subconcussive and concussive hits to the brain are unavoidable. My Concussion Tribute\u2122 donations are to speed the research, protect our athletes, and help families be fully informed about the risks to their child athletes.<\/p>\n

Amount:\u00a0<\/b>$1,000<\/p>\n

Frequency:\u00a0<\/b>Weekly<\/p>\n

Duration:\u00a0<\/b>Through the Super Bowl<\/p>\n
