When someone close to us dies, we experience grief, sadness and, ultimately, an appreciation of all memories we have of that special person.
An In Memory Gift to Epilepsy Australia is a special way to remember someone, and at the same time help give hope and life to those who remain.
An In Memory Gift can be an individual donation in memory of a loved one or friend.
An In Memory Gift can be a donation at the request of the bereaved family in lieu of flowers at the funeral or service. Special envelopes can be provided for this purpose. Please ask your Funeral Director to contact us to provide envelopes for the service, or contact us directly.
For some people an In Memory Gift donated on the anniversary of their loved ones birthday or a date significant only to them is their way of paying tribute to special memories.
When someone dies their passing has a profound effect on their work colleagues, sports team or social group. Many times the group feels they would like to do something together to jointly honour the memory of their friend who has died.
Donations may collected from a variety sources: from the employer, from colleagues, from a fundraising activity specially organized in honour of their friend, or collected at sporting events or a social dinner.

While Nathan didn't win the title of Celebrity Apprentice Australia, he won the hearts of all Australians living with epilepsy. With the final going down to the wire, Ian 'Dicko' Dickson pipped Nathan at the post in the final challenge to create the best music video for their charity song. In accepting his win, Dicko showed great generosity of spirit, when he asked that the winning prize of 100k be split between their charities. His admiration for Nathan was evident throughout the show, and his wonderful gesture acknowledged how hard both contestants fought for the title. Epilepsy Australia congratulates Dicko on his win and thanks him for his awesome gesture. Nathan's appearance on Celebrity Apprentice Australia has raised a total of 80k for Epilepsy Australia which will help us continue to help people living with epilepsy Australia-wide. We congratulate Nathan on being such a wonderful Ambassador for Epilepsy Australia.
