We are pleased to announce that Karen Wood is the 2017 recipient of the Melanie Grace Scholarship. Karen has been a long time volunteer at the Epilepsy Association of Calgary and has participated in many events in addition to her volunteer duties. She is most deserving of the scholarship and we're certain that Melanie Grace would agree. We wish Karen much success as she pursues her dreams!

Seasonal Celebration 2017 - A really enjoyable event filled with fun and laughter.

If you are looking for some holiday gifts, consider our chocolate or a cozy toque. The chocolate bars are hand made by Olivier's and come in dark or milk chocolate for $5.00 each. The toques are warm and fuzzy and feature our penguin. They are light grey and each one sells for $10.00. Proceeds from the sale of these items help support our programs and services, so your purchase serves a dual purpose! Call or stop by our office (403) 230-2764.

The elves were busy at our office yesterday preparing some treats for our kids party today.
