Josh Murdock's Fundraiser

Help me in my goal to attend + fundraise for the DSDN Rockin’ Dads retreat in Nashville.
Just a small donation will go a long way to helping me reach my goal for Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network.
We are no longer accepting donations on this campaign, but there are other ways for you to support us today!
Hey! My name is Josh. My wife is actually making this page for me in hopes to get fundraising to attend the Rockin’ Dads retreat in Nashville in 2024.
This year, as most of you know, has been a whirlwind for our family.
We decided that it would be best for my wife to stay at home to care for Ellis and now I have been the sole provider for our family’s finances.
It would mean so much for me to get to attend this retreat and fellowship with other dads who are also a part of #theluckyfew.
Please keep my fundraising a secret from me, though, when possible. I don’t know about any of this so it would be great for my wife to be able to surprise me with it!
The cost to attend the retreat is $400. There is additional cost for travel and hotel. You can help me offset this cost by donating. Anything over the amount needed will be contributed to the DSDN network as they are a non-profit.
You can read more about the Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network here:
DSDN is a registered 501(c)(3) non-profit operated by two paid staff members and over 150 volunteers and funded by generous donations from supporters like you.
