Roger says: "Epilepsy is a disease that has invaded my family. We've come a long way in the last few decades in treating epilepsy, but so much more can be done to push the boundaries of what's possible in epilepsy care. And that's where the Epilpesy Foundation comes in."
"Studies show that 30 to 40% of epilepsy cases are drug-resistant, underscoring an urgent need for more research and development.
The Epilepsy Foundation contributes to critical technological breakthroughs through programs including:
The Shark Tank Competition. Providing grants for innovations in improving quality of life for people with epilepsy.
The Research Ambassador’s Program. Empowering those impacted by epilepsy to actively engage in research and development.
Sponsored clinical trials. Promoting informed participation in crucial trials to advance new treatments.
Direct funding. In 2025, we awarded $555,000 in grants to scientists, researchers, and entrepreneurs.
Don’t wait to make a difference! Thanks to our Matching Gift partner, Roger Paschke, YOUR GIFT WILL BE DOUBLED UP TO $35,000 for an even greater impact on the epilepsy community.
