  2. 2nd exempt purpose accomplishment camp bruce mccoy is a nationally-recognized, 40-year-old residential summer camp and respite program for adult survivors of brain injury (18+) and their family members/caregivers. While family members and caregivers enjoy some much deserved days "off", campers enjoy recreational programming customized to their needs and interests in the companionship of their peers and professionally trained staff and volunteers. Camp activities include horseback riding, canoeing, team sports and a ropes challenge course (adapted to the camper's abilities). These social recreational programs reduce the level of social isolation typical among persons with brain injury by providing access to a community of their peers.

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended.

48% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund BRAIN INJURY ASSOCIATION OF VIRGINIA INC.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $86k arriving through sponsors registered in 2 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
