Donate today and together we can make a difference for families of children with Down syndrome.

Dear Friends and Family,

Today, I want to share a very personal story about our beautiful daughter, Laynee, and invite you to join us in supporting an organization that has become an integral part of our lives—the Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network (DSDN).

When Laynee was born, our lives changed in the most profound way. We received a diagnosis that we hadn't expected—Laynee has Down syndrome. In those initial moments, we felt a whirlwind of emotions: love, fear, uncertainty, and above all, a fierce determination to provide Laynee with all the love and support she needs to thrive.

As we navigated those early days, the Down Syndrome Diagnosis Network became a beacon of hope and guidance for our family. They connected us with other families on similar journeys, provided us with invaluable resources, and, most importantly, helped us see the joy and potential in every moment with Laynee.

Laynee is now 4, and she is a constant source of joy, sass and inspiration. Her laughter is infectious, and her determination to overcome every obstacle she faces fills us with pride. Through her, we have learned the true meaning of resilience and the beauty of diversity.

We are reaching out to you because we want to give back to the DSDN, which has given us so much. Our goal is to raise money to support their mission of providing information, community, and advocacy for families like ours. Your donation will help ensure that other families receive the same support and resources that have been so crucial to us.

Whether it's $5 or $50, every contribution makes a difference. Your support will help families feel less alone during what can be an overwhelming time and empower them to celebrate their unique journeys.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for considering supporting this cause that is so close to our hearts. Together, we can make a meaningful impact and continue to build a world where individuals with Down syndrome are celebrated and supported.

With gratitude and love,

The Kalmon's
