Celebrating the talents and passions of the Down syndrome and special needs community

Hello Friends and Supporters –

Inspired by my son Troy, over the past 19+ years, many of you have joined us and supported our efforts on behalf of the Down syndrome and special needs communities.

Our focus on raising awareness and funding for important and underfunded causes remains steadfast despite the craziness of the world around us. Perhaps the best way to feel good these days is to pay it forward and contribute to people who need a little extra support. To that end and through your goodness and generosity, we have raised nearly $2.7 million (and counting) to date!

In the same spirit, we are again hosting our Annual Summer Double Dip Fundraiser on Saturday, July 29th – the details are below. And while getting together is a summer highlight for many, we never lose sight of the fact that our efforts benefit two amazing causes: LuMindIDSC Foundation (where I serve as board chair) and The IDEAL School (which is Troy’s alma mater).

We thank you so much for all that you have done – we remain humbled by your willingness to make a difference!

We hope that you can participate in Summer Double Dip either by attending in person or supporting us financially or with your good words. To send a message of support, click here.

For now, please save the date!

Thank you!

Allison, Anthony, Erin, Troy, and The Summer Double Dip Committee
