I am hosting a drive to raise funds for UPS For DownS until sold out, in support of this parent directed, non-profit organization offering support, education, and encouragement for parents, families and others who love and care about persons with Down syndrome. They inspire community acceptance by sharing with others the presence, potential and abilities of people with Down syndrome.

"As parents, we don’t know what we don’t know; we journey together and help one another form our questions and ask them out loud"

UPS for DownS was started in the Chicago area over 35 years ago. The organization prides itself on being run and organized entirely by volunteers - mostly parents and family members. We reach far beyond the metro Chicago area, and provide trainings, education, information and community opportunities. We seek to create worlds and communities that are diverse, welcoming and inclusive.
