The Epilepsy Foundation of San Diego County is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization serving the San Diego community since 1954, offering personal advocacy and counseling, seizure first aid training, Expressive Arts therapy, camp and a variety of supportive services. All these services are provided at no-cost and are available to anyone whose life is touched by epilepsy. 

The mission of the Epilepsy Foundation of San Diego County 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.

For 26 years the nationwide Sharon's Ride.Run.Walk. for Epilepsy has become a movement that brings our community together to educate, spread awareness and raise critical funds to make a difference for the people we love who live with epilepsy.  These nationwide events are dedicated to the memory of Sharon Rosenfeld, a nurse and teacher who cared deeply about epilepsy and advocated helmet safety.  Sharon was killed on a cross-country bicycle ride in 1993. Sharon's Ride.Run.Walk San Diego is a 15-mile Bike Ride or 5K Run/Walk, but it’s more than that.

IT MATTERS BECAUSE…

• 1 IN 10 will have a SEIZURE in their lifetime
• 1 IN 26 will be DIAGNOSED with EPILEPSY
• 50,000 SAN DIEGANS LIVE with EPILEPSY
• 3.4 MIL individuals nationwide are AFFECTED by EPILEPSY

Thank you for supporting Sharon’s Ride.Run.Walk. for Epilepsy.  YOU ARE MAKING A DIFFERENCE for people with epilepsy.
