Walk-a-thon? Jump-a-thon? Dance-a-thon?

Or something more?

Pick your choice to support our epilepsy cause!

So thankful that we are all safe at home. Yet, with the uncertain times and outdoor events being postponed remember epilepsy can’t be postponed. Help us by supporting our continued efforts to assist those living with epilepsy.

Walk, jump, dance or do anything that makes you happy during quarantine. Show us your moves and support those living with epilepsy and their families. Get your family moving and active for a good cause.

You are not alone because we’re in this together!
