Fundraising/Events
100% of all donor contributions to the Brain & Behavior Research Foundation for research are invested in NARSAD Grants to help understand the causes and improve the treatments of disorders such as depression, bipolar disorder, schizophrenia, autism, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHA), and anxiety disorders like obsessive-compulsive (OCD) and post-traumatic stress disorders (PTSD).
Foundation fundraising events include a wide variety of sporting and family events such as Kite Fest for Healthy Minds, kayaking, walks, runs, golf events, triathlons, dance parties, benefit concerts and more. These events are created and organized as part of the TeamUp! for Brain & Behavior Research Foundation program, which facilitates third-party fundraising events from around the United States.
The Brain & Behavior Research Foundation also holds monthly "Meet the Scientist" webinars, conferences and other research education events for the public, and offers donors the option to sponsor a specific scientist with their donation(s).

Famous quotes containing the word events:
“That’s the great danger of sectarian opinions, they always accept the formulas of past events as useful for the measurement of future events and they never are, if you have high standards of accuracy.”
—John Dos Passos (1896–1970)
