This month our Cause is in support of an event started by one of our own school families who were inspired by their son Zeke. Taken from their event site...

“amaZing Z” was inspired by our lil’ Zeke who has been making our lives so much more amazing since the day he was born. You might say, he put the “Z” in our amazing!

Our goal is to help add some “Z” (zeal, zest, zing, etc) in the form of financial contributions to amazing individuals, families and organizations that have been blessed by Down syndrome as well as raise awareness about Down syndrome.

We do this mainly by hosting a 3.21K run/walk every year on or around World Down Syndrome Day. We are able to make an enormous impact for many because of the generous and caring people in our lives. Register and find out more here: https://amazingz.org/amazing-3-21k/
