The Purple Pumpkin Project

Purple pumpkins are showing up in Springfield and all over the U.S. to raise Epilepsy Awareness.
Local celebrity Cole Rapini looks satisfied with his collection of purple pumpkins

Epilepsy affects over 3 million Americans of all ages – more than multiple sclerosis, cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, and Parkinson’s disease combined.

Almost 500 new cases of epilepsy are diagnosed every day in the United States. That means every 4 minutes someone is hearing "It's Epilepsy."
