What started as a dream for 9-year-old Cassidy Megan of Nova Scotia, to bring attention, awareness and understanding to epilepsy, has grown into an international day of awareness around the world. Some of the countries that celebrated Purple Day in 2012 are China, Saudi Arabia, India, Mexico, Czech Republic, Yemen, Kenya, Indonesia, Australia, Pakistan, USA and of course, Canada.

Approximately 300,000 Canadians, and 50 million people around the world are affected by epilepsy. Please help promote epilepsy awareness in our community by wearing purple on March 26th and by coming out to enjoy our wonderful events.
