Gift Giving

It is only through the generosity of others that NADS is able to provide an array of services to children and adults with Down syndrome. It is a privilege to serve babies with Down syndrome by providing support and guidance to their parents. We assist parents from the time they learn of their child’s diagnosis (before birth in some cases) and throughout their child’s life. We also serve adults with Down syndrome and we were privileged to know and love the oldest person with Down syndrome, a beautiful lady who lived to be 84. Yes, we strive to make the world a better place for children and adults with Down syndrome of all ages and your support will help us to continue our mission.

Each and every donation to NADS is gratefully received and is also tax deductible.
