Purple Day was founded in 2008, by nine-year-old Cassidy Megan of Nova Scotia, Canada, with the help of the Epilepsy Association of Nova Scotia.
March 26 is now an international grassroots effort dedicated to increasing awareness about epilepsy worldwide.
So next Friday, March 26, wear something purple and spread the word about epilepsy.
