Thank you for visiting Aila's walk page! She is using this site to share information about herself, her future goals, and how important DSAW is to her family. ❤️
 

We do have a family goal to find corporate sponsors - to get businesses really thinking about how they can support people with a little bit extra! A career seems long off for Aila, but it's something Matt and I are already talking about. I'd love a world where she can have her choice of work, and maybe starting the conversation when she's a small child will give us enough time to plant some seeds of change! If you are a business owner and have a desire to show your support through a corporate sponsorship, please see the sponsorship link below.

Don't be afraid of our family sponsorship ambitions. What really matters most to us is the regular love and support you show Aila. Each year we've participated in this walk you have shown up for her by joining us in person, walking virtually, and adding to her team total. You are learning sign language with us as we patiently wait for Aila to find her voice. You acknowledge her and make her feel loved. We are so grateful for all forms of support. 

Please consider supporting Aila's team in any way you can. Each donation, no matter how big or small, will support individuals with Down syndrome. Our family participates in social and educational events throughout the year. Matt and I have begun to attend parent nights where we get to meet other adults and talk without our girls pulling our attention away. Those nights have been enjoyable! DSAW also supports adults and caregivers across the life spectrum, and we are looking forward to being connected to the organization for a very long time.

Donating through this website is secure. It is also the most efficient way to support our fundraising efforts. Donations are tax-deductible and often can be matched by employers. You may also donate via paper check mailed to the DSAW-CV Office: PO Box 493, Eau Claire, WI, 54702 (If you would like, you may write Aila's Amigos on the memo line to add your gift to her team total.) Whatever you can give will help - it all adds up!
