Legacy Stories

About the Legacy Donor Gallery

We’re forever thankful to the families that continue to put their trust in the Concussion & CTE Foundation® and the UNITE Brain Bank by donating their loved one’s brain. Without their selfless contributions, we would have never made progress toward discovery. Donor families often choose to stay involved with the Concussion & CTE Foundation and the BU CTE Center through the Legacy Family Community.

The Legacy Donors listed below are listed regardless of the results of their brain analysis. All have been listed with the permission of the family. Within the gallery, you’ll find a few stories of people whose brain, for various reasons, was not able to be studied at the UNITE Brain Bank. You can use the “filter” button to read stories from various categories.
