The Epilepsy Foundation (epilepsy.com) thanks sponsors, nonprofit community partners, volunteers and walkers for joining them May 13 for a beautiful day at Tri-Faith Initiative for the 2023 Walk to End Epilepsy – Omaha. They raised over $74,000 to help support epilepsy programs, services, advocacy and research!
The Balloon Brigade provided entertainment, Tom Becka (American Radio Personality) was the emcee and amazing food from three local food trucks kept people from going hungry. The Omaha Fire Department joined in the morning festivities, while local high school cheerleaders cheered on walkers. Stormy from the Storm Chasers and Hoot from Omaha Union made their rounds meeting people and provided entertainment for everyone. It was a fun day had by all while raising awareness and funds for epilepsy!
