Charitable Giving

Without philanthropic support, Rehabilitation Institute at Santa Barbara (RISB) would not be able to provide its unique and comprehensive services. From the Charity Care program that ensures that financially disadvantaged children and adults have access to rehabilitation, to our Technology Initiative committed to the implementation of new treatments and technologies, RISB is here to help people with disabilities achieve their fullest potential.

The Institute is fortunate to have many supporters among its former patients and their families, team members, the Institute's Board of Directors, community members, service clubs, corporations, and granting agencies. The generosity of donors has enabled individuals to stay local to receive the best rehabilitation possible in order to return achieve optimal quality of life. On behalf of the Board of Directors, team and patients at RISB who benefit directly from your generosity, we thank you.

Where Does My Donation Go?

All donations made to the Institute stay at Rehabilitation Institute at Santa Barbara and are used exclusively to benefit patient care.

Who Benefits?

How Do I Give?
