Toronto Rock Ticket Promotion to Benefit Epilepsy Canada

The Toronto Rock are partnering with Epilepsy Canada to raise money for epilepsy research. Fans of the NLL champion Toronto Rock can enjoy their lacrosse heroes battle the Buffalo Bandits on March 16, at special discounted ticket prices.

A portion of every ticket sold in this promotion will be donated to Epilepsy Canada. The game is one of three home dates at the Air Canada Centre which The Rock will play during March -- Epilepsy Awareness Month.

Over 300,000 Canadians have epilepsy, a condition that causes sudden bursts of hyperactivity in the brain and reveals itself in the form of seizures. Epilepsy Canada is the only national organization in Canada with the mission to enhance the quality of life for persons affected by epilepsy through the promotion and funding of research and education. It receives no government funding and relies entirely on private and corporate donations to achieve its goals.

Tickets for the March 16 Rock vs. Buffalo Bandits game can be purchased online at http://www.torontorock.com/page/epilepsy
