DNA Distributing, U.S. distributor of Velocite Bikes, has teamed up with Saul Raisin and the Raisin Hope Foundation to help raise awareness and support for survivors of Traumatic Brain Injury.
From May 1st through May 31st, DNA Distributing is extending a 10% off discount on any full price purchase made, simply by entering the promotional code "RaisinHope" during checkout. In addition to the savings extended to each customer, DNA will also contribute 5% of each sale to the Raisin Hope Foundation. We hope to not only help promote the sport of cycling but also increase awareness for those with TBI.
It has been our pleasure to get to know Saul on a personal level and being able to not only support him but also play a role in supporting his foundation and helping to increase awareness is very important to us.
- On April 4, 2006, at the age of 23, Saul crashed in a professional bicycle race. The subsequent effects led him to endure a coma, substantial bodily damage, and a traumatic brain injury. His outlook, as you might imagine, was bleak. Medical professionals didn't know if he would survive, and if he did, what kind of life he would lead. Miraculously, he awoke from his coma only to enter a world full of doubt and uncertainty. Now fully recovered, he has created the Raisin Hope Foundation to help transform hope into knowledge. The Raisin Hope Foundation's goal is threefold:
1. Raise funding to support brain injury research
2. Connect individuals and families whose lives have been affected by a brain injury with support and information regarding medical, physical, and emotional recovery
3. Promote public awareness and understanding of people with disability as a result of brain injury.
On behalf of DNA Distributing and The Raisin Hope Foundation we sincerely thank you for your time and appreciate your willingness to help in our efforts to increase awareness of those affected by Traumatic Brain Injury.
