Epilepsy Association Purple Day Party

The Epilepsy Association is hosting their first ever Purple Day Party fundraiser. This casual, happy hour style event will be held on International Purple Day, which is Tuesday, March 26, 2013.

The event is a very low-key style gathering where individuals will come and show their support for EA and those who suffer from epilepsy. The event will take place from 5:30PM- 7:30PM at PJ McIntyre's Irish Pub located on Lorain Ave.

Come show your support by helping EA raise funds and epilepsy awareness. We encourage you to bring co-workers, friends, family members, & kids AND don't forget to wear something purple!

Tickets are $25 and include appetizers and two drinks. Kid tickets are $10 for anyone 12 and under.

Our Mission: The Epilepsy Association is a not-for-profit corporation dedicated to helping people cope with and manage seizure disorders by improving their quality of life, while empowering individuals to reach their full potential within the community.

About Epilepsy:
More than 3 million Americans have some form of epilepsy. Epilepsy affects more people than Parkinson's disease, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis and muscular dystrophy combined and deaths due to seizure disorders are more common than breast cancer deaths. Of the major chronic medial conditions, epilepsy is among the least understood even though one in three adults know someone with the disorder. The medical community has identified more than 40 different types of seizures, and the different seizure types result in a wide-range of physical symptoms. For over two-thirds of epilepsy patients, their seizures cannot be controlled by medications and other treatment options.

Individuals with epilepsy are at risk of premature death and mental illness. This is why the services provided by the Epilepsy Association are necessary in our community. These services help save lives.
