Local Fund To Support Epilepsy Life Enhancement

A local fund is stepping up to take the place of a now-defunct charity.

Epilepsy Huron-Perth no longer exists as a charitable organization, but the Boyd Devereaux Epilepsy Life Enhancement Fund is stepping up to support youth with Epilepsy in Huron and Perth and families.

The former NHLers fund has two Life Enhancement sponsorships, at a max of $500 each, which are available for youth up to the age of 18, to assist them in participating in sports, camps, education, and cultural or recreational activities that will enhance their development as individuals.

You can donate to the fund at Foundation for Enriching Education Huron Perth website.
