Thank you for taking the time to visit our sponsorship page.

On October 15th, we will begin our walk at the Bay Area Buddy Walk at Lake Cunningham Park in San Jose. Its goal is to help create and raise public awareness and promote inclusion, diversity and acceptance of Down Syndrome in our society.

Thanks to all your donations and sponsorship last year, Ryan has benefited tremendously from programs such as Handwriting without Tears and Feuerstein Instrumental Enrichment. In just the past year, his teachers and educators have noted his accelerated progress in reading, writing, math and level of comprehension.

We have been extremely fortunate and blessed to have all of you as Ryan's friends, educators, caregivers, and even compassionate strangers who show the utmost care and support any parent could have wished for. To you, we would like to say thank you for being a special part of Ryan's life and we sincerely wish you could join us for this event.

You can help provide support by doing either one or both of the following.
