Be one of Lincoln's Heroes!

Our family is gearing up to participate in Arizona's Walk for Down Syndrome, which is a fundraiser for the organization Sharing Down Syndrome.  We'd appreciate any donation you are able to give!

Please click here, and it will take you to Lincoln's Heroes team page.  You can click on the "Donate" button from there.  I have set a very lofty goal of $1,000!  (Note to self: must make more friends from whom to beg money)  All donations go to the charity, and it is a cause that has already changed our lives.  Two representatives from Sharing Down Syndrome visited us in the hospital when Lincoln was a day old.  They gave me the hope and resources to feel like, yes, I can do this, and yes, it will be beautiful.

If you are in the area and want to join us for the walk, it's Saturday, September 10th at Tempe Diablo Stadium.  It will be a lot of fun, especially for the kids, since there will be fun stuff to do after we all walk around the stadium.  Click on the "Register Now" button on Lincoln's Heroes page, and you can register to walk with our team.  I'm thinking we should all dress like super heroes...or maybe we'll just have matching t-shirts...we'll see :)

*Donations are just a one-time thing, not per mile.  Actually, I'm pretty sure we're literally walking once around the stadium, so it's a good thing it's not per mile!

Is the donation outright or is it per mile?

You know we are behind this 100%. We do the Buddy Walk with Angie each November and it is such a blast. I cry through most of the event because I feel so proud and honored to participate.
