Story

Phil Doran was an inspiration to me and to so many of his friends and family members.  No one I know of encountered more obstacles or hardships in life, yet he always displayed a contagious smile and a desire to live life to its fullest. The idea of finding a CURE always gave Phil hope and provided a reason for him to fight on. Although Epilepsy ultimately took Phil from us, I'm asking you to join me in continuing Phil's quest for a CURE.  

Each year, we look forward to standing shoulder to shoulder with the CURE family to celebrate research progress and recommit to funding the next wave of promising science. And while we can't stand together in person this year, we will still Unite to CURE Epilepsy.Now more than ever, it is critical that we continue to fund the groundbreaking research that will one day lead us to a cure for epilepsy, and it's up to us to be part of the progress. CURE is incredibly important to me, and I hope you'll consider making a gift through my page.Then, join me in tuning into the online program on Thursday, September 24. This live streamed event, featuring world-class entertainment from country music star Eric Church and live host Mike Barnicle of MSNBC's Morning Joe, is designed to transcend geography, bringing us, the dedicated supporters, together to team up and raise critically needed funds to help CURE achieve our mission of finding a cure for epilepsy.Thank you so much for your support.
