Purple Day

March 31st Purple Day

Epilepsy Awareness Day, or “Purple Day,” is an international grassroots event designed to bring awareness to epilepsy and seizure disorders. Observed every year on March 26, Purple Day was created by 16-year old Cassidy Megan of Nova Scotia, Canada in 2008.

Motivated by her own struggles with an epilepsy disorder, Cassidy wanted to help dispel some of the myths regarding epilepsy and to let those diagnosed with a seizure disorder that they’re not alone. Purple Day encourages people all throughout the world to wear purple and share information about seizure disorders in support of epilepsy awareness.

We are accepting gold coin donations on the day.
