DARE TO DONATE
 

#DareTo Campaign

For people living with epilepsy, the Epilepsy Foundation’s new  “#DareTo” campaign focuses on improving understanding and management of their seizures, including exploring the best available treatment options and best possible care.  The campaign underscores the Foundation’s commitment to being bold and aggressive in accelerating change for all people living with epilepsy. 

 

The “#DareTo” campaign began in November as part of National Epilepsy Awareness Month, with a new public service announcement featuring Rick Harrison from TV’s “Pawn Stars.”  Harrison lived with seizures as a child and is now a national spokesperson for the Foundation and serves on the organization’s national Board of Directors.
