Meet other families on the pediatric epilepsy surgery journey and celebrate our community at the beautiful French Embassy in Washington, DC!
This event launches our Give for Hope™ campaign to raise funds for Dreams for Danny – our surgical evaluation travel scholarship program. This program provides up to $1,000 in travel costs for families who seek a surgical evaluation at a level 4 facility more than fifty miles from their home.
