People around the world will be wearing purple and hosting Purple Day parties and activities to support their local epilepsy organisation.

You can become involved with encouraging awareness of epilepsy and raising much needed funds for Epilepsy Queensland.  By doing so, your valued fundraising efforts will assist to provide vital services and programs for the 86,000 Queenslanders living with epilepsy.

Purple Heroes can :

• Wear purple on 26 March and encourage others to do the same for a gold coin donation at work, school or play!
• Host a Purple Party and donate the proceeds.
• Give a tax deductible donation as an individual, group or business and leave a message on line at www.everydayhero.com.au/purpleday
• Talk about epilepsy with colleagues, friends and family to help bring epilepsy out of the shadows.

Let us know how, where and why you wish to become a Purple Hero so that we may acknowledge your support and add your event to the official international Purple Day website. 

Participating schools can also be recognised for their valued Purple Day fundraising efforts on this site.  To join the campaign and/or for further information please contact us via phone on 07 3435 5000; 1300 852 853 (outside Brisbane) or email pr@epilepsyqueensland.com.au
