Help Mercedes raise money

On Sunday August 20th,I will be participating in the 7 mile Falmouth Road Race hosted by the Massachusetts Down Syndrome Congress (MDSC) to promote the acceptance, dignity and social inclusion associated with Down Syndrome.

After running the Boston Marathon in honor of Mila I decided to continue on my mission to run miles for Mila, all while raising awareness. The Falmouth Road Race has been was on my bucket list for years and last year it became a reality. I loved the race, the crowds and running with the MDSC team. I liked it so much that I registered to run again this year. 

Mila has been my biggest motivation since the day she was born. After seeing Mila work day in and day out to achieve her goals and milestones it really has inspired me to do the same; to push myself to do something incredible and meaningful.  

The Massachusetts Down Syndrome Congress offers top-notch programs and services for people with Down syndrome, their families, health care professionals, and the community-at-large. Your support will bring us one step closer to achieving our fundraising goal.

Your donation will help the MDSC reach its goal—to ensure that all individuals with Down syndrome are valued, included, and given the opportunity to pursue fulfilling lives. With the money raised, the MDSC can continue to fund important programs and services in education, research, and advocacy for those with Down syndrome. Your support will help other families who are going through the same journey as we are and need the help and support of MDSC.
