💜 Together We Can Make a Difference
In Texas, no one faces epilepsy alone.
Epilepsy Foundation Texas exists to improve the lives of people affected by epilepsy through education, advocacy, research, and connection. Together, we can make strides toward a world where epilepsy is better understood and everyone affected receives the Care and Support they need.
Your generosity fuels our mission and transforms lives:

-
Empowering Camps: Funds a safe, supportive, and completely free camping program for children, teens, and families.
-

Together, we can improve lives, raise awareness, and work towards a future free from the challenges posed by epilepsy. Thank you for your generosity and support.
