Without the financial support of our donors, we simply would not be able to develop and deliver the many services on which our members rely.

Successes like our Partners In Teaching program and this website are created thanks to the financial support of friends like you.

Thanks for your support.

There are several ways to donate to the Society:

• By Mail: Send your cheques to the BC Epilepsy Society at #2500 – 900 West 8th Avenue, Vancouver, BC   V5Z 1E5
• By Phone: Call us at (604) 875-6704 to donate using your Visa or MasterCard
• Online: Through Canada Helps

In Memoriam and In Celebration Gifts

Most people are familiar with the practice of making a charitable donation in memory of a friend or family member. The BC Epilepsy Society can send acknowledgment “in memoriam” cards to a family after their loss to let them know about your gift. The amount of the gift is not given in the card.

On the other hand, most people don’t know about the concept of “in celebration” gifts. When families host a celebration event like a birthday, wedding, anniversary, graduation party, or some other family event, they can ask guests to make a donation to the BC Epilepsy Society rather than bringing a present.

Please consider both options in benefit of the BC Epilepsy Society. The gifts can be directed to epilepsy research or programs. Tax receipts are available to donors.

If you’d like to discuss either of these options, contact our office at (604) 875-6704. 

Matching Gift Programs

One of the smartest ways to give is through a matching gift program where a company or individual will match donations to charitable organizations. These matches are often dollar-for-dollar, which doubles your charitable-donation power.

Check with your company's payroll department to see whether it offers a matching gift program. Ask them for donation guidelines.

Decide how much you want to donate to the BC Epilepsy Society.

Donate through your company's matching gift program, filling out the appropriate forms to ensure that the matching gift is donated to our Society.

Monthly Donations

Some of our donors prefer to make their donations on a monthly basis because they don't have to commit to a single large gift at one time in the year. For example, $50 each month may be easier to budget than $500 once a year. You can start your monthly donations by clicking on the CanadaHelps.org logo below.
