NOTHING WILL STAND IN OUR WAY! 

Kansas City Step Up Walk   October 24, 2020

Since March, DSG has been re-thinking how to safely host our fundraising events due to the uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. One thing is for sure, we WILL come together—virtually, and hopefully in person—to celebrate your loved one with Down syndrome!

DSG is planning a hybrid approach to ensure everyone can be involved at their own comfort level! We will host a Virtual Walk and continue to plan for our *in-person events! *Should we need to cancel these events due to COVID-19 restrictions, our Virtual Walk will keep our community together in a fun and different way!

Save the Date!
Central MO Step Up Walk: Sunday, October 11
KC Step Up Walk: Saturday, October 24

Navigating the Uncertainties
While we are optimistic that we will be able to gather together in-person for our Walks, we are unable to predict whether the state and local regulations will place restrictions on group events due to COVID-19.

Remaining Steadfast in Support of our Families
We want you to know how important it is for us to continue this celebration! No matter what the future holds, we are certain we will come together this fall—although it may look and feel a bit different.  Our goal is to provide the best experience possible for both types of events!
