The Epilepsy Foundation Nebraska (epilepsy.com) will be hosting its annual Walk to End Epilepsy on Saturday, May 13, with registration beginning at 9 a.m. at Tri-Faith Initiative, 13136 Faith Plaza in Omaha. There will be a vendor area, a kids zone hosted by Raising Cane’s, photo opportunities and more. The presenting sponsors are Children’s Hospital and Medical Center and Marinus Pharmaceuticals.
Advocates, healthcare professionals and supporters for epilepsy from across the state will come together to honor individuals dedicated to furthering awareness and recognizing achievements within the Nebraska epilepsy community.
Join the Epilepsy Foundation in-person to raise the awareness and funds to END EPILEPSY. With each step taken and dollar raised, they are closer to reaching their goal: a world free from epilepsy and free from fear of the next seizure. The extra special event will also include a number of food trucks including DonutNV, The Big O Sno and The Laughing Boar.
