Raising Funds for Research

Did you know 57¢* out of every dollar raised by Epilepsy Canada, a non-profit organization, goes to fund epilepsy research? Only 43¢* is used for administration and fundraising efforts like this mailing.

Recently, in a cost-savings move designed to keep 2011 operating costs as low as possible in order to channel more funds into research, we moved our national office from Montreal to Toronto to share space with Epilepsy Ontario.

Our new website was developed and donated by Glacier Digital, of Burlington Ontario. One look at www.epilepsy.ca and you will see an easy to use site packed with stories and information about Canadians afflicted with epilepsy, and the important research being done across Canada to help them.
Donating on-line allows you to make secure one-time or monthly donations from the site. This alone reduces the costs of printing, mailing and return mail envelopes.

Cost efficient measures are also being taken to print and mail letters such as this one. Epilepsy Canada continues to look for ways to make your support dollars stretch even further. Every dollar really does make a difference.
