THE STORY:
Thank you for taking the time to visit our page!
We have had an AMAZING year with our beautiful daughter Madison and we are so thrilled to celebrate her successes and support her future by participating in the 15th Annual F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Buddy Walk! This will be our fourth year participating and we are hoping team Madison's Marchers will continue to grow this year! Very recently, Madison started walking independently, so this will be the first Buddy Walk Madison will actually be walking in!!!! You won't want to miss such a special moment! We are SO thankful for all the support we received last year! We are thrilled to join F.R.I.E.N.D.S. again this year in their goal of raising awareness and creating opportunities for individuals with Down syndrome and their families to live the life they dream of living. F.R.I.E.N.D.S. is working hard to allow our children the opportunity to become recognized as valued members of our community. The group has graciously welcomed and supported our family. We have met so many wonderful families and shared our stories and experiences.
Please join us this year by spreading the word and making a donation to our team in honor of Madison. The funds raised allow F.R.I.E.N.D.S. to offer scholarships, continue education for teachers in our schools who work with our children, offer medical grants, and bring families together and better the lives of our children. Every dollar helps and any gift of thoughtfulness can make a powerful difference in our children’s lives. Your tax-deductible donation will directly benefit people in our community with Down syndrome.
Madison’s life is a life worth living. Our daughter has fought hard for her life, please help make the change so that can be the hardest fight she will ever have to face!
Our family sincerely thanks you.
