Purple Day® Every Day

Epilepsy awareness 365 days a year

Purple (lavender) is the international color representing epilepsy awareness and we want everyone across the world to know. Inspired by Purple Day® – March 26, the international day for epilepsy awareness, we created Purple Day Every Day to help make purple and epilepsy awareness important every day of the year.

Launched by The Anita Kaufmann Foundation, Purple Day Every Day connects people just like you with epilepsy awareness initiatives and events year-round. Check out our Events page to find the events nearest you and sign up to become a Purple Day Ambassador in your community.
