LGS Day 2015
Nashville Zoo
November 1 annually is International LGS Day, the official awareness day for Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome around the world.
The LGS Foundation kicks off epilepsy awareness month every November with International LGS Day by engaging the LGS community, organizing events, and leading awareness activities on or around November 1.
The LGS Foundation's 2016 Main LGS Awareness Day Event will take place at the Superhero Atrium @ the Port Discovery Children's Museum on Saturday, October 29th from 6:30pm - 9:30pm.
Join us as we celebrate real-life superheroes; those living with LGS and their families, for this incredible superhero-themed LGS awareness event!
This year's gala will feature special appearances by MediKidz and other Superheroes, games, activities, dancing, and more.
If you aren't able to attend the LGSF's event in Baltimore, don't worry - there are many other ways for you to get involved in LGS Day. Whether it's attending another awareness event, organizing a local 'superhero' event of your own, participating in social media efforts, or pitching a story to the media, the LGS Foundation can help you along the way.
Start planning an awareness event for 2016 now. Email leah@lgsfoundation.org for more information on how you can organize an awareness event in your area.
Below are some additional resources to assist you in planning your awareness activities for 2016. Or, download our LGS Awareness Day Idea Sheet here.
