The Matty Fund, through its Epilepsy Resource Center, the first of its kind in Rhode Island, is dedicated to providing support and resources for children and families living with epilepsy, as well as providing epilepsy awareness, epilepsy research, college scholarships for Rhode Island high school seniors and Camp Matty sponsorships.
Epilepsy affects 3 million Americans and is the third most common neurological disorder. Nearly 200,000 new cases occur each year. One in every 100 Americans will experience a seizure at some point in their lives, while 3% will develop Epilepsy.
