Thirty years after suffering a traumatic brain injury that left him with lifelong disabilities, Worthington native Mark Minister has been raising money for people who have suffered similar tragedies over the last few years. We hope that the creation of the Mark Minister Award will continue to inspire brain injury survivors to make small steps towards big changes. 

The 2027 Awardee will be honored at our 11th Annual Event at The Ohio State University.

We hope that the creation of the Mark Minister Award will continue to inspire brain injury survivors to make small steps towards big changes.
