Thank you for visiting our fundraising page! You have probably found this page because you have been as lucky as us to know and love James! In 2014 we were blessed with a perfect son who has an even more perfect amount of chromosomes. Since that time James has taught us more about love, happiness, compassion, and patience than we could have ever imagined. 

Unfortunatley, we did not always understand the blessings that accompanied James. It was through our local support system: our friends and our families, that reminded us how lucky we were. Beyond our amazing personal support system, we were fortunate enough to find guidance from the MADSS community. This walk benefits the amazing society who was there to support us when we needed it most and we want to make sure it always has the resources necessary to help famlies like ours. 

Donating through this website is simple, fast and totally secure. It is also the most efficient way to support our fundraising efforts.
