The Mission of the Epilepsy Foundation of Northwest Ohio is to ensure the long term financial viability of the Epilepsy Center of Northwest Ohio and to increase community awareness of epilepsy
Our Commitment
The Foundation is proud to stand alongside individuals and families facing epilepsy. By ensuring financial sustainability, raising awareness, and directly investing in opportunities, we help build a stronger, more supportive community for those living with seizure disorders.
Our History
Founded in 1977, the Epilepsy Foundation of Northwest Ohio has been dedicated to supporting the needs of the Epilepsy Center of Northwest Ohio. Over the years, our reach has expanded. Today, the Foundation not only strengthens the work of the Epilepsy Center but also seeks opportunities to partner with other organizations serving people with epilepsy in our community. Through grants, partnerships, and scholarships, we strive to empower individuals and improve quality of life.
Scholarship
Each year, we award a college scholarship to a local high school senior or college student living with epilepsy or another seizure disorder. This scholarship honors students who demonstrate courage, perseverance, and a strong commitment to their education despite the challenges of epilepsy.
