Mini Story:

Epilepsy Foundation Fundraiser, covered by Mario Faiman

Starting February 10 through February 14, Key Club will be selling paper hearts in the cafeteria during lunch to raise money for the Epilepsy Foundation Of Indiana.

“We are selling paper hearts for a dollar and then people who buy those paper hearts can write their name, a message or something along those lines,” Hannah Bilsland ‘20 said. “Then we’re going to put them on the wall.”

All proceeds will go to the Epilepsy Foundation Of Indiana. Epilepsy Foundation’s main goal is to lead the fight to overcome the challenges of living with epilepsy and to accelerate therapies to stop seizures, find cures, and save lives.

“We’re holding this event because someone from the foundation reached out to us and asked if we would be able to do this and we thought this would be a great way to help,” Bilsland said.

Recently, the Epilepsy Foundation Of Indiana has helped pass a bill that mandates training of school personnel on seizure first aid.

“The donation drive is a great way for people at the high school level to support an important foundation that is bringing much-needed support for students,” Bilsland said
