The Board has been in existence for over 12 years and currently boasts 85 members.
Board members participate in many different ways.
Some volunteer on RIC's pediatric floor once a month and read stories to the children. Others prefer to work on fundraising events and acquire raffle prizes, welcome guests, or contact the media for press coverage. The main events the Board runs are a golf tournament and a black tie dinner. The Board holds a black tie dinner, the Bearcat Ball, each fall to raise funds for the Institute. RIC's Pediatric Program provides rehabilitation care to children, regardless of their ability to pay, and the Board is a supporter of these efforts.
