2014 Kessler Society
* Board Member
Leadership gifts from Kessler Society members provide Kessler Foundation with a solid base of financial support that provides our scientists and grant makers with critical resources. These resources propel scientific discoveries and fund innovative employment initiatives that help people with disabilities re-imagine what’s possible and realize the extraordinary. On a consistent, annual basis, these generous friends demonstrate a belief in our mission and a commitment to solidifying Kessler Foundation’s role as a global leader in rehabilitation research and disability employment. Membership in the Kessler Society is extended to friends who make gifts to Kessler Foundation totaling $500 or more each year. Every donor is an essential partner in our mission to change the lives of people with disabilities—helping people take first steps; improve the ability to think, learn, and remember; and overcome obstacles to employment.
