The CACF staff are always learning about interesting projects for which nonprofit organizations are seeking funding.

The list below, “Giving Opportunities,” is an attempt to make the broader public aware of these projects.  It is continually updated and has proven to be a very effective way to help nonprofit organizations in our region.  If you have questions about any of the projects described below, please contact the nonprofit organization directly, or call the CACF office.  If you would like to submit an article to Giving Opportunities please contact Sofia Case, Donor Relations and Programs Assistant, at scase@cacfonline.org.

High Street Clubhouse - Virginia NeuroCare

Last Updated Oct 2009


According to the Centers for Disease Control, nearly 85,000 Virginians and 3.17 million Americans are living with a long term disability or a lifelong need for help to perform activities of daily living as a result of a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). The nationwide costs associated with TBI are over $60 billion each year. Virginia NeuroCare (VANC), a Charlottesville based provider of brain injury services, offers a community based Clubhouse to address the lifelong needs of Central Virginians. The High Street Clubhouse, located on the Downtown Mall, offers a place for brain injury survivors to rebuild their lives. Members run the Clubhouse with the assistance of professional staff while working towards the achievement of personal goals, such as volunteer work, part time employment, or an opportunity for a productive, fulfilling day outside of the home while family members work. Each year, the High Street Clubhouse provides services to 35-40 persons with brain injury along with providing education, information, and referral to 25 others who need assistance following a brain injury.

For more information on the High Street Clubhouse please contact Jocelyn at CACF.
