Raising Money to “Promote” Medical Research:
A lot of money is raised by nonprofits in the name of medical research. Stating that the purpose of a non-profit organization is to “promote medical research” implies that the organization is actually raising funds for medical research. However, raising money to promote medical research does not mean that money is being raised that will actually be spent on medical research. We want organizations that say their mission is to “promote” brain injury medical research to actually fund brain injury medical research.
