The Gerry Bertier #42 Foundation has presented the Virginia Commonwealth University Spinal Cord Injury Rehabilitation and Research Center with a gift of $35,000. This is the sixth gift that the department has received from the foundation.

The Foundation raised money this year by the Annual Golf Tournament, a Dinner Dance, a Meet and Greet with the Titans, Deep Run High School Dance Marathon and the Walks for Walking Campaign.

“The Bertier Foundation over the last six years has literally grown up right in front of your eyes. We are so very proud of our continued success and our ability to support your efforts to restore quality of life to your patients” said Buck Sutton, President Gerry Bertier #42 Foundation.

William McKinley, MD. Professor of the Department of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation and Macon Sizemore, Director of Rehabilitation Services accepted the gift on behalf of the Center.
