Your donation supports 1 in 26 people. 1 in 26 people will develop epilepsy during their lifetime. Double all donations will be doubled in January by the Board of Directors. $126,000 Our fundraising goal by January 31.

Dear John,

Reminder: For the month of January, and in honor of the 1 in 26 people who will develop epilepsy during their lifetime, we are asking supporters like you to donate $26 or more for our GIVE26 campaign. Thanks to our generous Board of Directors, every donation will be matched, up to $126,000, through January 31!

Morgan Staker is 1 in 26. Diagnosed with epilepsy at age 12, she faced years of uncontrolled seizures that disrupted her education and daily life. Through the support, resources, and community she found with the Epilepsy Foundation, Morgan learned to navigate her diagnosis with confidence, and with the help of improved treatment options, she's now thriving in horticultural school.

Her journey came full circle when a classmate had a seizure in class. "I was the only one who knew seizure first aid," Morgan shared. "Without this information I would not have had any idea what to do. Your information and resources might have just saved a life today."

GIVE26 ensures more people like Morgan have access to livesaving education, connection, and hope. Your gift to GIVE26 strengthens our community and propels us towards our mission to ensure that no one faces epilepsy alone.

Last year, the Epilepsy Foundation:

Trained over 523,000 people in seizure first aid.

Answered more than 13,295 inquiries through the Epilepsy & Seizures Helpline.

Ensured that more than half the states have passed some form of Seizure Safe Schools legislation.

Updated and improved epilepsy.com, receiving over 7.7 million page views.

Make sure to donate by January 31 to DOUBLE the impact of your gift. In appreciation of your support, we'll send a window cling sticker to all those who donate $26 or more.

Thank you for being there for the 1 in 26 this year!

Sincerely,
