My personal message:

Thank you for visiting our fundraising page!

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support our fundraising efforts.  Please feel free to pass this on to others who would like to show their support.

Can you believe Devon is going to be nearly 22 months old by the time the Buddy Walk arrives this year?! We have been blessed beyond words by God through Devon, the other children and families we have met through the Down Syndrome Society and all of our family and friends that have been so supportive on this journey with the Monty 5. 

Last year we had a total of 23 people on our team with Devon as our captain. This year we are already up to 32 signed up, anyone else want to join in? It's an easy walk and a great way to get involved with the Fresno Area Down Syndrome Society. 

We have been so blessed by having Devon in our lives that we want to share with others.  The statistics are sad and difficult to believe.  Did you know that 90% of moms who get a prenatal diagnosis of Down syndrome choose to abort their babies?  If they only knew what they were missing!  We are passionate about educating people about how wonderful life with Down syndrome can be. Educating people about Down syndrome is a big part of what the Fresno Area Down Syndrome Society does and that is why we are fundraising to support this organization.

God bless you and thank you for your love and support,

 

Team Monty 5

 

P.S. Our kid has more chromosomes than yours! :-)
