Seize the Day — Today is Epilepsy Awareness Day! KiDS NEED MoRE is honored to share a little about our friends the Benci Family and their daughter Bella— They’re the kind of family who is all about love, connection, and finding joy wherever you can. Isabella sees the world in her own special way. She uses adaptive equipment like switch toys and shared technology to connect, play, and explore. With the support of her brothers, Joey and William, Bella reminds us that there’s more than one way to experience the world — and every way is worth celebrating. March 26th is Epilepsy Awareness Day, and we’re wearing purple to stand with Bella, the Benci Family, and so many others who face challenges most people never see. Today is about raising awareness, building understanding, and making space for every child to shine in their own way. Together, we Seize the Day. Together, we create a world with MoRE love, MoRE hope, and MoRE joy.
