Burns Recovered's GOT TALENT!
The event, to be held at the Funny Bone Comedy Club, Streets of St. Charles will feature a national comedian/speaker and burn survivor, Bobby Henline, amazingly awesome acts from Midwest Children's Burn Camp campers, inspirational stories from our organization and fun raffles/prizes!
Come experience our community of survivors and service at this first of its kind event which helps raise funding for Burns Recovered, an organization to benefit burn survivors and their families whose mission is to "help every burn survivor live life to the fullest without limitations, fear, or insecurity".
Tickets include an appetizer buffet, 2 drink tickets, and all the entertainment and activities of the evening!
We are seeking sponsorships for complementary tickets for burn survivors/co-survivors and our performers.
The event will begin at 4:00 PM with our featured entertainer, Bobby Henline, delivering a funny and inspirational message and then our talented youth burn survivors will take the stage! After the talent acts, we'll pause for a brief intermission when those under 21 will exit and our headliner, Bobby, will deliver a standup routine!
After our event, we are encouraging all guests to stay for the Funny Bone's 7:00 PM comedy show (tickets can be purchased at the Funny Bone website) and offering complimentary tickets to this show for our survivors and co-survivors! (Our VIP Ticket purchasers will cover the cost for our adult survivors to attend the 7:00 PM show free of charge!)
In keeping with our mission to "help every burn survivor live life to the fullest without fear, limitations, or insecurity", we offer continuing education scholarships for adult burn survivors and "Passionships" for youth burn survivors.
Our adult scholarships provide financial assistance for college or vocational school tuition after high school graduation or for job training/career education for those who may be changing jobs after an injury.
Long-time Midwest Children's Burn Camp volunteer Jim Neff inspired our "Jim Neff Passionship" scholarship program which provides funding for young burn survivors to pursue activities they are interested in which will help them live life to the fullest!
Each year at Camp, we recognize our annual scholarship participants who are pictured here:
