FW: We got a match

Dear salare, A couple of weeks ago, our president, Phil Gattone, sent you an email alerting you to a special matching gift opportunity. Cyberonics HOPE Charity Foundation has agreed to match any contribution you make to the Epilepsy Foundation—up to $25,000! It’s an incredible opportunity and comes at an important time for us.    We have had an outpouring of support—but we still have not heard from some of our most valued supporters. If you haven’t done so already, please give today and have your gift double in size.  This year, an estimated 200,000 people will be diagnosed with epilepsy, and over 45,000 of these will be children. Please show your support with your special matching gift donation right away. On behalf of the more than 2 million men, women and children living with epilepsy, thank you for all you do.  Sincerely, Chad M. Hartman Vice President of Development

Click here to double the impact of  your gift by taking advantage of our matching gift opportunity today.   Dear salare, I just got some amazing news. A generous Foundation Partner, Cyberonics HOPE Charity Foundation, has offered to match any contribution you make to the Epilepsy Foundation—up to $25,000. That means that for the next few weeks, any gift you make will DOUBLE in size and impact. Your gift will go twice as far to help our local affiliates in states across the country provide much-needed services to support people and families in their communities living with epilepsy. People like Wendy, who just lost her job and doesn’t know how she will help pay for her adult son’s costly seizure medications. Your gift will go twice as far to support our public education efforts to eliminate the negative reactions and attitudes people have about those who have epilepsy. People like Janice, who has an adult sister with epilepsy. Now her sister has been diagnosed with a mental disorder, as well. Janice is desperate to know if the two disorders are related, if they will worsen and what she can do to help. Your gift will go twice as far to fund our research grants and fellowships that support urgently needed advancements in epilepsy treatments. People like Todd, whose daughter was just diagnosed with epilepsy after having three terrifying seizures in one week’s time. Todd is searching for any information that might help his little girl. Most importantly, your gift will go twice as far to give all the people whose lives are touched by epilepsy hope for a better future. So please help the Epilepsy Foundation maximize the full amount of this matching gift offer by donating now! Sincerely,  Philip M. Gattone, M.Ed. President & CEO P.S. Hurry! Your gift today to the Epilepsy Foundation will be matched by our matching gift partner, Cyberonics HOPE Charity Foundation—up to $25,000. So respond right away to see your gift DOUBLE!
