Ignite the Night: A Celebration Benefiting Burn Thrivers Worldwide
Come support individuals aided by local nonprofit HandReach for Ignite the Night: A Celebration Benefiting Burn Thrivers Worldwide. The evening festivities will be set to the tune of burn thriver Dan Caro’s drumming, topped with performances by the Treblemakers, Paradise Lost, and Muji Karim, and complete with edible treats. It’ll be a night fueled by support for the burn survivor, or rather, burn thriver community, in Boston and across the globe.
Worldwide, burn injuries are the most underfunded injury, and HandReach is extending help across the map to ensure the best practices in pediatric burn and amputee care and rehabilitation are available in places they’re needed most. HandReach is the sole American-based organization helping burn thrivers internationally by maximizing institutions’ abilities to treat complex injuries and promote full rehabilitation for children, regardless of income and no matter how far away the corner of the world they occupy.
The event is sponsored by Topical BioMedics, Inc., Shriners Hospitals for Children of Boston & Springfield, and the National Fire Protection Association.
The event has been organized by Emerson College’s Communications Department, with funding provided by the Emerson College Office of Service Learning.
