''I chose the Epilepsy Foundation because epilepsy became a deeply personal issue for my family when my brother was diagnosed going into his senior year of high school. It was a shocking and unexpected challenge that forced him to make drastic changes to his daily life. Seeing firsthand how epilepsy impacts not only those diagnosed but also their loved ones made me realize the importance of supporting research and resources for those affected. By contributing to this foundation, I hope to help advance research, improve treatment options, and support families navigating the challenges that Epilepsy presents. Giving back in any way I can is my way of helping others who are going through similar experiences.''
