Welcome

Thank you for visiting our event page. We are so excited for our 16th Annual DSAW-Green Bay Down Syndrome Awareness Walk at Capital Credit Union Park on Saturday, September 28th!! 

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!
