MAY 2026 HIGH HOPES
ERIC MARIENTHAL & FRIENDS CONCERT
FEATURING DAVID BENOIT
The Eric Marienthal & Friends Concert is coming up soon on SUNDAY, JULY 12 2026, and it continues to be one of the most anticipated evenings of the year. This is not a typical fundraiser, it is a well produced, high end event where live music, atmosphere, and community come together in a way that feels intentional and worth attending. This year’s featured artist, David Benoit, is a Grammy-nominated jazz pianist and composer known for shaping contemporary jazz and leading productions like the Charlie Brown Christmas tours. His performance brings a level of quality and energy that defines the entire evening.
Guests can expect a full experience, from a strong lineup of live
performances to a thoughtfully curated dessert bar and a lively social
setting with a full bar. The VIP experience offers a more private and
elevated setting, including dinner with the artists and the
opportunity to connect more closely with the talent behind the
music. Throughout the evening, a carefully selected live and silent
auctions add another layer, featuring items and experiences that are
genuinely worth bidding on.
We are currently seeking auction items and event sponsors. If you or
someone in your network can contribute products, services, or
experiences, or if you are interested in aligning your brand with this
event, your support plays a direct role in making the evening
successful.
Tickets are limited and we do sell out. If you are planning to attend, it
is worth securing your spot early.

Neuroplasticity and Brain Injury
Neuroplasticity is the brain’s ability to change its structure and function in response to injury, learning, or experience by forming new neural connections and reorganizing existing pathways.
After a brain injury such as TBI or stroke, neuroplasticity is the primary mechanism behind recovery. With consistent and targeted rehabilitation, the brain can regain lost functions or develop new ways to perform tasks. Research shows that brain reorganization and healing can continue for many years, in some cases up to 20 years after injury.
Advanced imaging tools such as MRI and fMRI have shown that recovery is not limited to the early stages after injury. Although age can influence the speed and extent of change, individuals of all ages can benefit from ongoing rehabilitation.
Neuroplasticity is a lifelong process that makes meaningful recovery possible long after injury. High Hopes Head Injury Program has been an excellent example of individuals recovering many abilities thought lost forever due to their injury, at any age, through consistent and targeted rehabilitation.
