Don't Just Sit There is a foundation dedicated to spinal cord injury recovery. We are committed to advancing the goal of full recovery from spinal cord injuries as well as increasing access to recovery therapies and treatments.
4th Annual Don't Just Sit There Comedy Night
With the help of modern medicine, technology, and hard work, recovery from a spinal cord injury is a possibility. But the road to recovery is long and expensive. Thousands each year are left paralyzed as a result of violence. Many of these individuals don't have healthcare and even fewer are given the opportunity to recover from their injuries. For this reason, the Scholarship Fund for Spinal Cord Injury Recovery was established. The Scholarship Fund selects individuals with spinal cord injuries from violence who are committed to their recovery and their communities. Recipients pursue their recovery at "Walk The Line To SCI Recovery" in Ferndale, MI three days per week, three hours per day.

Thanks to the generosity of Mark Ridley and the donation of his comedy club, Mark Ridley's Comedy Castle, the annual "Don't Just Sit There" event was established. By coming together for a night of comedy and fundraising, the event supports SCI recovery by increasing public awareness.
On behalf of the Don't Just Sit There Foundation I would like to thank Mark Ridley, our sponsors, donors, volunteers and many supporters who made this year's "Don't Just Sit There" Comedy Night Benefit the most successful yet! Please see visit the DJST 2006 page for more details and photos from this year's event.
