My name is Catherine Alexander and I live in Portland, Maine with my husband, Todd, and our three girls, Sally (17), Grace (15) and Paige (13). Sally is an amazing young woman who has Down syndrome. I am running the NYC marathon in Sally’s honor to fundraise for research that could help prevent Alzheimer’s disease in the future.
LuMind IDSC’s Run for Down Syndrome marathoners are advocates who spread our vision of a world where every person with Down syndrome thrives with improved health, independence, and opportunities to reach their fullest potential.
LuMind IDSC Foundation was founded in 2004 by two families seeking better futures for their children. Today, they are the leading translational Down syndrome research organization and serve as a bridge between the Down syndrome community and the research community. LuMind IDSC envision a world where every person with Down syndrome thrives with improved health, independence, and opportunities to reach their fullest potential. They accelerate research to increase availability of therapeutic, diagnostic, and medical care options and empower families through education, connections, and support.
Please help me reach my goal. Thank you for support and generosity!
