People with brain injuries often go without the support and therapy they need. David Krempels knows this first-hand. He barely survived a traumatic injury in 1992. He was one of the lucky ones. He staged a remarkable recovery and he won a big liability award. He?s put the money to use helping others with brain injuries through the Krempels Foundation. The foundation has a grant program and Steppingstones, a place for brain injured individuals to meet and participate in various activities.
