Dear Friends,

I’m reaching out with a heartfelt request to support Epilepsy Foundation India, an organization that is making a real difference in the lives of millions affected by epilepsy.

Epilepsy is more than just seizures—it’s a condition that affects education, employment, social inclusion, and quality of life. Despite being treatable in most cases, millions in India still suffer in silence due to stigma, lack of awareness, and limited access to care.

? Why Support Epilepsy Foundation India?

They offer free diagnosis and treatment for underprivileged patients.

They run awareness and education campaigns to break the stigma.

They provide training for caregivers and first responders to manage seizures safely.

They help people with epilepsy reclaim their dignity and independence.

? How You Can Help
Your contribution, big or small, goes a long way:

?500 can fund one consultation for a patient.

?1000 can help cover medication for a month.

?5000 can support a village-level awareness camp.

? Let’s be part of a movement that not only saves lives but also changes perceptions. Together, we can bring light to a condition often hidden in the shadows.

?? Please consider supporting this cause today. Your time, voice, and donation can make a powerful impact.

Thank you for being part of this journey of hope and healing.
