Thank You for Supporting
Step Up for Down Syndrome

What a BRIGHT, SUNNY AND FUN DAY for the
Step Up for Down Syndrome Walk - DSIA's 7th Annual Walk.
The Walk had it all - old friends, new friends, great vendors, fabulous volunteers, wonderful entertainment, fantastic food, and......the Walk raised over $31,000 that will enable DSIA to continue to provide resources and support within the greater Sacramento area!

Because of the generosity of family, friends, and co-workers, this is just an example of the types of programs that will benefit from your fundraising:

  • Parent-to-Parent Program
  • Educational speakers
  • Social events
  • Expanded Hospital Outreach Program
Want to share your amazing pictures from the walk, and perhaps see them featured on DSIA's website and future walk materials? Send your high-resolution pictures to stepup@downsyndromeinfo.org and we'll send you an image release. You just might see your pictures featured by DSIA!
