Dear Friend,
What do these great minds have in common?
Joan of Arc - Napoleon - Alfred Nobel - Beethoven - Julius Caesar
They all had epilepsy, which meant they had to overcome many challenges. But they also all had dreams and determination.
Epilepsy remains one of the most misunderstood neurological conditions. Today, approximately 20,000 Calgarians have epilepsy. Thanks to the financial support of caring individuals in our community, the Epilepsy Association of Calgary programs and services
are available for individuals, families, and employers and any interested organization or group concerned with epilepsy.
The Epilepsy Association of Calgary's Community Education Program:
- increases confidence by supplying knowledge and facts about epilepsy to replace misinformation, misunderstanding, and fear;
- increases individuals' abilities to recognize a seizure and provide appropriate first aid, if necessary; and
- builds relationships as we help break down the fear of the unknown.
Your support will ensure that the Epilepsy Association of Calgary's Community Education
Program continues to reach out to Calgarians to help those with epilepsy realize their
dreams, and possibly even shape our future.
On behalf of the Epilepsy Association of Calgary, and most importantly, on behalf of those
who participate in our programs, we look forward to your donation this year.
Sincerely yours,
Marcel Ouimet, President
Epilepsy Association of Calgary
