Our 14th Annual Benefit to Fight Epilepsy and SUDEP!

WHEN:  Saturday September 23, 2023 / 5-9:30 pm CST


DETAILS: Gratitude fills our hearts as we plan our 14th annual gala to raise money for families in the epilepsy community. Danny Did has assisted parents and patients spanning all 50 states and 16 countries. And yet, there remains a large unmet need, and we look to increase our impact in the years ahead. The dollars we raise will change lives for the better.


FORMAT: We are happy to welcome friends and supporters for our Hearts & Hugs fundraiser at Theater on the Lake in Chicago. Hosted by our friend Mike Lowe of WGN News, our program will feature family impact stories, auctions, a raffle drawing, live music from Terry Byrne, and our "Bid From the Heart" segment. The event features an early start so guests can enjoy the sunset from the patio overlooking Lake Michigan.

There will also be a live stream of our program, with Danny Did supporters able to watch remotely from across the U.S. For those watching remotely, a pre-show countdown will lead up to the live stream, beginning at 7 pm CST. 


REGISTRATION: Information coming in July 2023.
