With the support of our generous friends like you, we were able to provide support via a Supplemental Therapies Scholarship, host monthly summer playgroups for littles, continue our partnership with Buddy Up Tennis, and so much MORE in 2024! WOW - thank you!

We rely on the incredible support of our community to make DSAW-Green Bay's services happen. The majority of our programs and events are fully funded by this annual Awareness Walk, and we need YOU to help make them happen. Join us!
