Our family is incredibly grateful for DSAW-Green Bay and the impact it has had on Hendrix's life. DSAW-GB's passion for empowering individuals with Down syndrome shines through in every program, event, and opportunity they provide.
Hendrix loves DSAW-GB! His favorite program is Sign N Play, where he learns sign language, builds communication skills, and spends time with friends. He is also so excited to add Music Therapy to his list of DSAW-supported programs. Music brings him so much joy, and we know this opportunity will help him continue to grow, learn, and express himself.
His favorite event is the World Down Syndrome Day Dance & Party. It is a joyful celebration where he can be himself, connect with friends, and proudly Rock Our Socks! This special event is also meaningful for our entire family, including Hendrix's siblings, who get the opportunity to connect with other children who have a brother or sister with Down syndrome. Those friendships and connections are invaluable and remind us that we are part of a supportive and welcoming community.
The caregiver and future planning workshops have provided our family with valuable knowledge and support, and a DSAW-GB Enrichment Grant helped make an intensive therapy program in Denver possible for Hendrix.
Every donation to DSAW-GB creates opportunities for individuals with Down syndrome and their families to learn, grow, connect, and thrive. The support our family has received has made a lasting difference in Hendrix's life. We are forever grateful for DSAW-GB and for every donor who helps make these life-changing programs and experiences possible.
