World Down Syndrome Day

Today is World Down Syndrome Day 💙💛

At Down to Defend, this day means celebrating ability, inclusion, and the incredible individuals we serve—but it’s also a moment where we ask for your help.

This year, we fell short of our fundraising goal at our gala. While that was tough, our mission hasn’t changed—and our programs still need support to continue growing and reaching families who rely on us.

If you’re able, please consider making a donation today or committing to a monthly gift. Every single contribution—no matter the size—helps us keep our programs running and expanding. We truly can’t do this without you.

If giving isn’t possible right now, you can still make a huge impact:

👉 Share this campaign with your friends and family

👉 Talk about Down to Defend and why it matters

👉 Rock your crazy socks today and tell people why we celebrate!

Your support, in any form, means everything to us and the community we serve.

Thank you for standing with us 💙
